[bestbits] A BR view of multistkaholder processes...

[Nick Ashton-Hart]

Dear Carlos,

This is excellent. I got involved in MSMs in other areas of international policy in the 90s, before WSIS/IG/ etc during the HABITAT II process and parts of the 2nd Earth Summit. I've always thought that the Internet community needed to look at the MS models that preceded it (and in some ways inspired it) - WSIS was not the first, nor is it the biggest, international policy area to operate in an MS way.
