Dear Francis,

Would it be possible for you to use another format than PDF? I am not able to open it or read it from the screen reading program I use. PDF and JPG files are all pictures and screen reading programs for blind people do not read picture, either as in picture formats or at web sites.

Kind regards
Kicki

Ämne: [WSIS CS-Plenary] Language proposal for implementation

Hello

This is a language proposal for implementation that I submitted informally to several governements for consideration,  in my personnal capacity, before session of sub-com B ended so that they could think over it during the weekend.

As you know, after GFC7, see my previous comments, The WSIS in a great danger of not having a coordinated follow-up, which would make the whole WSIS a useless conference of empty words.

Whenever I discussed with the governements, many replied, OK for a multistakeholder coord. body, but unless you define its composition it is hot air.
Therefore, I tentatively propose to use bodies that they know, therefore with some credibility and legitimacy from their own perspective :
the Governemental bureau, the CSB and the CCBI, otherwise I am afraid we are going to be left with no coordination at all.

Of course, it is just a draft, a starting point, and by no means I presented it as the opinion of the whole civil society ( if this notion has any sense at all ), or any group ( until we have time to discuss it).

I am now just being kicked from the Cybercafé !

Best regards

Francis
