I'll do - actually, I'm trying to involve your "connectors" privately in 
the WGIG drafting work.

For the rest, I (sadly) think that our discussion is not going anywhere... 
I'll just add that I still don't understand who ever decided that the PCT 
caucus and/or the FSF are the sole legitimate representatives of the free 
software movement, or that matters such as intellectual rights are the 
sole domain of the PCT caucus or of the free software movement, so that 
other caucuses or civil society members cannot legitimately talk about them.

Still, as I wrote earlier in a reply to Georg, I think that it would be 
extremely stupid for all civil society if we could not reach sufficient 
reciprocal understanding so to push together the many proposals on which 
we may agree, rather than stressing again and again the few things on 
which we disagree. IMHO, the most stupid thing any of us could do is 
challenge in public the legitimacy of any civil society proposal at WSIS 
or at WGIG, as long as most of it can be shared by everyone - which is 
what we should aim to.
