[governance] A false consensus is broken

[Koven Ronald]

And so now Parminder tells us not only how to organize Internet governance but also how to recast the English language. 


Where's George Orwell now that we need him ?

You are talking like a diplomat, Avri :) . What happened is called a 
walkout although maybe a diplomat wont ever utter that word.

See 
http://www.eweek.com/cloud/wcit-treaty-talks-end-in-dubai-with-walkout-of-us-allies/ 

among many instance of press coverage that uses this term 'walkout' for 
what happened.

BTW, do you have any other substantive comment on the article?
