(final final final version)


Dear all,

a the Disability Caucus has submitted a chapter on Universal Design and
Assistive Technologies for our statement, I was happy to include it in a
revised version. (I had to copy-edit it a bit, but this happened to every
submission.)

The attached version is now the really final text of the statement that
will be submitted to the WSIS Executive Secretariat.

As the disability caucus now has its own chapter, I have included the
phrase "physical and mental health" in the health information chapter
again. I think this is fair, as every perspective is now included. (And
please don't start the whole health discussion again on all lists).

I assume our friends from CONGO will update the translations accordingly.

All documents will be available at www.worldsummit2005.org, at
www.ngocongo.org and (hopefully) at www.wsis.org, in different formats and
in English, French, and Spanish. Other translations are welcome - Arabic,
anyone?

I wish you all happy holidays and a good start into 2006.

Ralf
