<br>
thanks for this pointer to the ITU's news release.<br>
<br>
The conference hasn't ended yet. In a couple of hours there will still be a Plenary and rounds of objections and reservations to the approved documents.<br>
<br>
The official acts at <a href="http://www.itu.int/plenipotentiary/2010/pd/final-acts/001S.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.itu.int/plenipotentiary/2010/pd/final-acts/001S.pdf</a> are not open (only for members, with TIES number.) I am asking the ITU management publicly to make the fine gesture of opening them; it remains in process as I write.<br>
<br>
We all owe great thanks to Samantha Dickinson (@sgdickinson) from APNIC, Luis Miguel Martinez of Universidad Iberoamericana Mexico City (@lmuia, @electronicaUIA, @UIAdigital), Veni Markovski (@veni), Kieren McCarthy (formerly of ICANN, now GIBC, @kierenmccarthy and @GBIC), Pablo Hinojosa (APNIC, formerly ICANN, @lphinojosa) and a few others for their tireless, smart, well-tuned labor of twittering out from the conference live, sometimes blow-by-blow in what seemed pure madness. You can pick it up through the hashtag #PP10, and statistics for it in <a href="http://wthashtag/pp10" target="_blank">http://wthashtag/pp10</a>.<br>
<br>
Bill Graham's very good weekly reports will provide many of you with context, more complete information, and analysis, while the lively Twitter stream has served to make thousands of people worldwide immediately aware of the workings of the ITU and the troubles that even the most basic Internet concepts face in being understood.<br>
<br>
Whether the result of the Plenipotentiary is good or bad for the Internet will only be known after some time. What seems pretty sure for me is that the openness and transparency that the Internet brought (some times by force) to the ITU meeting have been effective in averting some of the worst results. Just one little sign of this is a speech of Secretary General Hamadoun Toure asking the Delegates to be aware that the meeting is being broadcast and they run the risk of making the world laugh at the ITU.<br>
<br>
We will have to analyze the entire experience with Bill soon to understand what went well, what went wrong, and how to fine-tune our strategies towards the future.<br>
<br>
For me it has been a motive of pride to try to contribute to this effort but mostly to see these great Internet souls bringing in light and fresh air to the one organization with a claim of a role in Internet Governance that remains most removed from compliance with the core WSIS mandates.<br>
<br>
Yours,<br>
<br>
