[WSIS CS-Plenary] Information?: WSIS Tunis Documents

[Robert Guerra]

Karen:

As for the documents that will be discussed and/or negotiated at  
prepcom III, my impression is that the following will be "on the  
table" :

(*) - Stalk-taking report : As Nenna mentions, it's just a report.  
Call it a deliverable that the ITU was asked to do as a result of  
phase I

(1) Negotiated texts that were discussed at Prepcom II and are still  
"open". (ie.  Documents that PrepCom-2 forwards directly to PrepCom-3)

           a. Text on Financial Mechanisms
           b. Text of the Political Chapeau, as it stands in the  
report on the Work of the GFC
           c. Operational (Implementation Mechanism & Way Ahead )

(2) Internet Governance - The WGIG report & associated comments will  
form the basis of the new document that will emerge

So i'd say we have not 2 documents, but 4 on the table :)

regards

Robert
