I will be there too

Excellent idea,  we should use modern collaborative ( free ) software.

There are two distinct issues :
1/ Implementation and follow-up is *not* on the agenda of the PrepCom3.
2/ The drastic and sudden modification of the GFC languages.

The first is a question of procedure, and the CSB should write a note to 
Karklins concerning this
matter:
When and where the Implementation and follow-up follow up will be 
discussed. ?
The second is a matter of content, and therefore all the groups should 
reinforce their
adovacy efforts with governements.
Of course, the procedural issue becomes all the more important that the
content becomes more problematic.

See you

Francis

Cher Bertrand et aliis

Il y a deux problèmes conceptuellement différents :
1/ La mise en oeuvre et le suivi ne sont pas à l'agenda du PrepCom3
2/ La modification soudaine et drastique des propositions du GFC

La question 1/ est une question de procédure du ressort du
Bureau de la Société Civile. 
Quand va-t-on donc discuter du suivi ?
Le 2/ est une question de contenu, et, bien sur;
 la question de procédure
devient d'autant plus brulante  que le contenu devient
problématique

A+
