still be 31st in many parts of the world, from India I can send this in the
morning. So, late birds are welcome as well....

Hi All,
 
The following is the two-para statement that I propose organisations and
individuals endorse in the next 15 hours.
I can forward the statement in the names of those who endorse it on this
list in this time-period.

1.    The undersigned organisations and individuals from the Civil Society
strongly oppose the move to make the proposed changes in paras 10, 11 and 29
of the operational part of the Tunis document, as per the new input document
circulated by the chair of the GFC. These changes are too drastic, they do
not represent the contributions of the various stakeholders to the existing
text, and their acceptance will defeat the stated purpose of the Tunis
summit, described as the 'summit of solutions', to make some real headway in
implementing the promises of the Geneva summit.

2.    We will like to see the present suggested mechanism, based on
stakeholder teams around action lines with a well-defined overall
co-ordination body, as contained in the existing paras 10, 11 and 29,
improved and elaborated through a multi-stakeholder consultative process to
ensure that an adequate and necessary post-WSIS structure is in place, not
only for implementing the outcomes of WSIS but also to take up Information
Society issues as they come up.

Thanks Bill. I count CPSR on. Parminder
