<p>Very interesting, indeed ! Thanks Parminder.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Can anybody on these lists explain me the difference (conceptual, ethical, philosophical, ...) between WEF and WSIS, or between the ITU SG and Klaus Schwab ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Oh, yes, there is one difference : WSIS is an "open process" (no business card conditioned) ... but only for "the polite CS" !</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Best regards</p>
