I am fine if we work with Nnenna's draft and add 'network of
networks' to it, maybe in the first sentence..<br>

<blockquote>We recognise the Internet, as a global network of
networks, to be an emergent and emerging reality. Its
specificity is inherent in its intricate combination of
hardware, software, protocols, human intentionality and a new
kind of social spatiality, brought together by a common set of
design principles, and constrained by policies established by
due democratic processes. We consider the Internet as a global
commons and a global public good. The design principles and
policies that constitute its governance should, therefore, flow
from such recognition of the Internet as a commons and public
good.<br>
