Ultimately, we should make suggestions and recommendations.

Things we might want to keep in mind include:

  • What do and should network services mean? How broad or narrow should we be in our recommendations? How do we need to divide things up to understand and handle them? What is our scope and our limitations?
  • The FSF's real power has been in taking principled statements in favor or essential freeedoms. Is that something we can or should do in this case? If so, what might it be?

What ethical responsibilities and rights can and should we make statements about?

  • A general evaluation of the classes of solutions out there including:
    • Legal approaches
    • Technical approaches
    • Social approaches
  • A list of concrete ideas how to proceed and explicit recommendations.

Finally, we should consider our own next steps:

  • What, if any, are the next steps for this group?
  • Do want to open up this group? If so, when and how?
