WSIS round up- November 18, 2005 As the publishing issue took so long to fix I have not blogged on the WSIS issue. The following is a round up of stories that I think cover the issue: Michael Geist - WSIS Deal NZ ComputerWorld - US, EU remain at odds over net governance NZ ComputerWorld - InternetNZ chief raises internet governance issues CNET - US reaches Net detente with UN CNET - UN says its plans are misunderstood The Register - US wins net governance battlehttp://www.nznews.org.nz/categories/gtld/2005/11/18.html#a620 kiwiblog has text of agreement- November 16, 2005 David Farrar has the text of the draft agreement. I only looked on his site after I saw the BBC headline.http://www.nznews.org.nz/categories/gtld/2005/11/17.html#a618 Agreement reached pre Tunis meeting- November 16, 2005 BBC is reporting that an agreement has been reached before the Tunis WSIS meeting regarding the recent Internet Governance 'issue'. Have to wait for more detail but do you really think David Gross said "anything that will create any problems for the private sector"Further information at Dutch site called ComputerPartner. Looks like this is just hitting the news wires now. In the morning should be lots of coverage.http://www.nznews.org.nz/categories/gtld/2005/11/17.html#a617 |
