Raul, is WGIG talking about Government regulations on
privacy, copyright, patent and trade marks, and
freedom of information and media?

I have understood that WGIG mission had to deal with
technical issues about Internet infrastructure and
growing, but if WGIG is becoming a regulation police
assessment body for Internet, it seems not well
conformed in plurality and diversity for that.

Is the mission of WGIG technical? political? both?
At first it appeared as something against ICANN
single-side regultaion about domain names... but now
you are talking about Internet contents regulation?
how was these transformation? How is CS there
represented in this issues? I hope that other WGIG
member do not speak about "Intellectual Property"
because these terms are defining a political position
against free software community and freedom of
knowledge.
