                What Have We Learned?
• Different working environments - have had to
    adjust
     - RIPE process is inclusive but another forum was
         needed for more open dialogue with government,
         LEAs, regulators
• Governments seek a position on Internet issues
    and want to participate
     - We are finding ways to make this happen
• Law Enforcement & Industry need to work closer
    in order to make a difference
