Veni,
Was is it about the ITU documents for the WTPF that show a position on
Internet Governance not reflected in the WSIS and WGIG output?  Can you
please be more specific?

Best regards,
Cynthia Waddell

Thanks, Constance.

Talking about the ITU, it will be good to see also some reaction from 
ISOC on the documents published here (ISOC has the right to comments, I
guess):

<http://www.itu.int/council/groups/wsis/index.html>http://www.itu.int/counci
l/groups/wsis/index.html 


They seem to represent a position about the Internet Governance, 
which was not shared in the consultations around the WGIG, and is not 
reflected in the final documents of the WGIG and the WSIS.

What is ISOC doing about it?

best,
veni
