Good afternoon (France time)
The question of place of IPR in the priorities
of the WGIG seems to be :
- an important one (positions try really to
exprim problems and visions of the place of
"internet-societies négociations" vs "global-societies
négociations")
- a confusing one (IPR are at the fondamentals
of an "information society", as ground properties
are fondamentals of the agrarian societies and
production means properties for the industrial one)
So we have to build a new kind of consensus on this question.
I feel the two boundaries of this consensus are :
- to let other civil society groups acting on the global
IPR problem enough room for their activities
- to integrate IPR in our conception of the governance
of the "internet-society" (not all society as always
try to explain Fede)
If we have to build a consensus that can match at the same
time the two sides of the IPR problem and take place between
the two boundaries, I think it's a good way to work
together.
So i ask one question, to clarify the way to such a kind
of consensus, to those who think that IPR is top-ranking
piorities for the WGIG :
- What exactly are the IPR problem you think are in the
scope of the WGIG ?
With that new information and collective reflexion, I
think we will find a real consensus.
Don't you ?
