WGIG AW: [WSIS CS-Plenary] UN Official Document System is online

[Dr. Francis MUGUET]

Dear Wolfgang

*Happy New Year*

Your support to Free Software is truely appreciated and
you are not responsible for the current inadequate composition of the WGIG.
The problem is that a third-party representation, however well 
intentioned, cannot be
as efficient as a first-hand representation.  This is obvious.
In order to partially repair the unbalance of the composition of the 
WGIG, and its ensuing
lack of crediblity, hope that you will take the constructive initiative 
to consult
your fellow countryman George on issues that appear to you as relevant
to Free Software, whenever they arise or you have a suspicion.
Waiting for a person to contribute to
 a process, when this person is not closely
involved is difficult, for all practical purposes.
This informal consultation would not entitle the WGIG
to declare that the Free Software community is endorsing any view
from the WGIG, but it might allow to perform some damage control.

Best regards

Francis

Give me some clear, reasonable and related points and they will be channeled directly into the WGIG process. Constructive involvment is always better than piping from the sideline.
