Hi all, 

Just a quick follow up to the second Internet Rights Charter drafting meeting Thursday (10/01). 

The following were present on the call: Rebecca MacKinnon, Robert Bodle, Lauren Movius, Olivier Cr?pin-Leblond, Shaila Mistry and Lisa Horner

Overview
Phases and Sections
Targeted outreach
Preamble
Tasking

Project was discussed in terms of phases and sections, deadlines, participation outreach, and commitments to drafting sections.  Wiki protocol was also suggested with authors writing a quick word about themselves in their ?about me? sections. The initial drafting group will email one another by way of introduction. 

Phases and Sections
Phase I is a draft of sections I. and II. The first section will be completed by Oct 15, the second by Nov 1.  The first phase/draft of complete charter document will then be used for broader outreach and participation in authoring the charter (Phase II).  

Targeted Outreach
Rebecca MacKinnon will do targeted outreach for Phase I to human rights community including people working in policy, international law, and human rights law as it relates to the Internet (Berkman, etc. ) in the next few days.

Preamble
Lisa Horner will write a preamble for this first phase of participation, in the next few days.

Tasking
Tasking of specific sections has started with editors assigned, most recently including Marianne Franklin to work with someone on article 26; also on 27 & 28 alongside Anja. 
Some of us are still deciding on specific Articles. Robert mentioned working on the most neglected article. 

Next meeting will take place  Oct 15 two Thursday from the initial meeting. 

Best,

hi everybody

Jac, Anja and myself had a productive meeting this morning.

We suggest the following approach: We identify volunteers who team up around individual rights articles and work out the "what does that right mean on the internet first" first. Then we subsequently move to the (matrix/layered) policy principles section. (Everybody is of course welcome to add bullet points / phrases to the principles section when there is a flow).

Everybody please review the current charter and add your name and the time by which you will have done your edits under each article commit to work on.

Anja has committed to work on the interpretation of article 27 by the 6th of October
Jac  has committed to work on the preamble, as well as the interpretation of article 12 (privacy), 18 (believe), and 19 (FoE) by the 8th of October

To volunteer to draft/edit the interpretation of a right, please click on "edit"  http://irc.wiki.apc.org/index.php/Charter_of_Human_Rights_and_Principles_on_the_Internet and put your name in the first row under the article heading AND send a message to the mailing list.

Looking forward to our meeting at 18.00 CET.

Yours
Max
