Thanks David.
I normally don't agree with the ITU S-G on a number of things and I would give reasons. I see that in the 'Wired' the S-G has proffered reasons for his views. Would you care to reason out your views? A bad opinion may just be good depending on how it is reasoned; and the converse is often true - a good but unreasoned opinion may not hold much water.
These foundational issues lie at the core of the forthcoming WCIT (WICKED!). Accordingly, depending on the reasoning, we may be able to bridge the differences, real or perceived, a lot easily OR be able to learn to live with our differences.

Dear listers,
Found this interesting op-ed piece in the Wired by ITU Secretary General -
'This is why, at the behest of all the world’s nations, the UN must lead this effort. Otherwise, the alternative is siloed, scattered discussions – which would put a brake on expanding connectivity to the communities that need it most.' With due respect to him, I don't agree with him on this at all.
Best Regards,
Davis M Onsakia
