[CVEPRI] Next Phase for CyberCrime Treaty Statement



All,

Gene Spafford, Gary Gagnon, Margie Zuk, and I had a discussion this
morning about the next steps to take for the CyberCrime treaty
statement.  Gary and Spaf will be the primary focal points for this
next phase.

Here is an outline of the approach we will take over the next month or
so.

We will be identifying 2 sets of people.  The first includes people
that we invite to sign the statement (industry leaders).  The second
is a list of people we want to make aware of the issue
(e.g. government policy makers, consortium leaders).

If you have suggestions for who could sign the statement and/or who
should be made aware of it, please send them to me, Gary Gagnon
(gjg@mitre.org), and Spaf (spaf@cerias.purdue.edu).

As soon as possible, a web site will be made available to potential
signers.  It will include things like links to the treaty, the current
statement, etc.  This web site will not be publicized in this phase.

Contact names and signatures will be collected over the next few
weeks, with a projected "deadline" of June 9th (but that date may
change).

After the deadline, we will send the signed statement to the Council
of Europe, press, and the "awareness list" of people who should know
about it.  The next step is undefined but will likely involve
increasing awareness at the consortium level.

Care will need to be taken to ensure that this action is not
attributed to "the Editorial Board" as an entity itself.  Hopefully
this will address some of the concerns that Board members have, such
as Kevin Ziese.  Also note that there is a Board organization that has
a dissenting opinion with respect to the statement.  That opinion will
be posted to the list once I've worked with that organization on how
to present it; the idea is to make it a "public record" that there is
not unanimous agreement within the Board.  A dissenting opinion does
not prevent other Board members from contributing, of course, but it
is an additional reason for us to be careful about how we present this
activity to the outside community.

Below is the current list of signers.  If you are speaking for your
organization, please ensure that you are under the "corporate" section
of this list.
