Norbert,

I should have qualified my earlier message with what you've just written - that being, a name in a subject line and a URL devoid of any context , well, seems off scope for the list.

A bit of context explaining how the issue might be linked to the subject at hand - well, is quite helpful.


Wikileaks and Manning well, bring up all sorts of issues related such as  - transparency, due process, human rights and whistle blowing. If they are issues people want discussed at the IGF, then I suggest we strategize how they could be developed into workshop proposals.

regards

Robert
