First of all, in order to avoid confusion: There is no CS *declaration* 
from 2005. We did that in 2003. This time, we agreed on a *statement* that 
assesses the official summit outcomes from our perspective, measured 
largely against the 2003 WSIS CS declaration.

And yes, the deadline was yesterday, as announced by Karen on 22 November 
in a mail to plenary. We will of course still accept inputs until we have 
a very final version (and French speaking folks will be able to comment on 
the French translation), but I am already working on a new version now.

Best, Ralf
