A new blog entry has been added to ACP11 ICT Strategy F Hi everyone! Please find the call for comments on the 2nd version of the '.Africa' debate. The debate is being hosted at http://discuss.diplomacy.edu/dotafrica. The full story describing this initiative is available at http://www.diplomacy.edu/ig/newsitem.asp?id=2515. The online debate should be of interest to us, especially those of us in Africa. All inputs and contributors' names will be included in a paper which will be presented during the 6th IGF in Nairobi. Regards, Norman -- *“And one should bear in mind that there is nothing more difficult to execute, more dubious of success, nor more dangerous to administer than to introduce a new order of things; for he who introduces it has all those who profit from the old order as his enemies,and he has only lukewarm allies in all those who might profit from the new. This lukewarmness partly stems from fear of their adversaries . . . and partly from the skepticism of men, who do not truly believe in new things unless they have actually had personal experience of them.” * (From Chapter VI of Niccoló Machiavelli,The Prince. Peter Bondanella and Mark Musa,translators. Oxford University Press revised edition, 1984, p. 21.)
