[IRP] our proposals for events @ IGF09

[Graciela Selaimen]

Hi Lisa and all,

Thanks for drafting this proposal. Most of the text is okay with me, 
excepting for the use of the word "value". I think we should stick to 
the concepts of rights and principles. In the name of cultural and 
religious values many human rights are violated around the world.

best,
Graciela
