I did not propose that part (though I agree with it). Hanane did, who being
from an Arab country may have felt its necessity more strongly than many
others. You may give your reasons and deliberate with her and we can proceed
accordingly.

BTW, the 'right to have an Internet in ones own language' has its equivalent
in the 'right to have education in ones mother tongue' which is spoken of
inter alia in the framework of 'education for all'. The IGF, Hyderabad's
overall theme 'Internet for All' was taken from this concept.
