[WSIS CS-Plenary] Re: [WSIS CS-Plenary] FW: News: Calm before the storm as UN summit approaches? / Role of oil in conflict

[Jean-Louis FULLSACK]

(no english version)
Mon cher Thomas et tous
Mon commentaire était simplement un reflet de la réalité, et certains de nos membres -dont Bill McIver- m'ont chaudement approuvé. 
En fait, je ne pense pas être "le critiqueur en rond" de cette liste 
a) parce que j'accepte de m'y exprimer dans une langue étrangère qui me demande un effort certain,
b) parce que j'y ai contribué de manière continue depuis son origine, en y apportant mes contributions aux débats et des propositions, y compris quand la liste sommeillait dur !
Mais je ne peux pas militer pour la divesité culturelle et me résoudre à me mouvoir dans un milieu "monotone" sans réagir ... gentiment.  Comme je l'ai fait.
Bien cordialement
Jean-Louis Fullsack

Cher Jean-Louis,
Ne critiquez simplement s.v.p. Vous pourriez au lieu de critiquer nous montrer des sources non-anglophones avec des nouvelles véritablement originelles. L’agence Inter Press Service par exemple nous offre des nouvelles en plusieurs langues comme celle-ci sur les situations avec la pénurie du pétrole :
 
Don’t just criticize please. Instead you could cite us some non-English-language sources with really original news. The Inter Press Service news agency for instance offers many languages, and original news stories such as this one on the oil scarcity: “Chinese President Hu Jintao is scheduled to meet with U.S. President George W. Bush, on the fringes of the United Nations summit in New York,” http://www.ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=30183 
 
Cordialement / Cordially,
Thomas

> Dear Renate
> Thanks for this british opinions which are intereseing, although they are not represntative of the opinions in other countries. If we are to read exclusively british opinion it is mainly due du the (ab)use of English language on our list. (Who did ever speak of cultural diversity ?)
> I think a lot of us would be at least as much interested by having the analysis of leading german papers (e.g. Suddeutsche, FAZ or Frankfurter Rundschau), french ones (Le Monde, Figaro, Libération), spanish ones (El Pais i.a.), italian, etc . But it would be at least as interesting to hear about African, LAC and Asian opinions, because they are the most concerned by this struggle and its outcomes, if ever there are some. And I suppose that the largest part of the NGOs in the WSIS need mainly to know what people in these countries feel, need, think and ask for. 
> If such a panorama isn't possible to be displayed -there are comprehensive reasons for that- a simple link to the articles/papers would be sufficient.
> However, I thank you sincerely for your effort.
