Hi,
I'm proposing we create an Internet Public Policy Module, as described
below. I'm also proposing the Module Owner be Harvey Anderson.
Harvey's been leading the global side of our public policy issues for a
while now. Having a Module notes this, and also makes it easier to know
where to go for policy topics.
For now, I've proposed this newsgroup as the discussion point, but I'm
not sure that's right. Perhaps a new discussion forum would be better.

Internet Public Policy Module
Description: Mozilla activities related to Public Policy issues that
affect the health of the Internet. Our working definition of Public
Policy is taken from Wikipedia: "courses of action, regulatory
measures, laws, and funding priorities concerning a given topic
promulgated by a governmental entity or its representatives."
This module includes:
-- determining if Mozilla should take an official position on a
particular public policy issue
-- determining what that position is
-- determining how mozilla communicates our position
-- global, multi-regional, regional or local action
-- direct action, or support of action by other aligned groups
-- public campaigns or opinion pieces or educational activities, dialog
with policy makers, other techniques TBD
-- strengthening local community capabilities to address public policy
issues
Owner: Harvey Anderson
Peers: TBD [by Harvey]
