That is an important contribution @Bomu, although listers should be allowed to express their thoughts without any intimidation and independent of the position of the list. So far, both on Kictanet and ISOC-KE, we have seen listers align themselves with the two positions
I would hope that our ISOC-Ke leadership also participates in this meeting.
but I would also caution against us seeming to or supporting the
Government. We should support the greater public good as we are not
Govt and must infact act as a check to Govt.
therefore I 'd propose that the views given on the list and elsewhere
eg kictanet by members to be used to develop a position that would
guide our leadership in such engagement. i also propose that the chair
and Secretary collate our views into a position statement for our
endorsement.
