[governance] URGENT- meeting with the Indian minister

Alex, the way I see it the whole point of having Kapil Sibal (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kapil_Sibal) be there would be to represent
the government and the government's interests (yes I remember 'government'
having 'interests' is not particularly positive from a previous discussion
- but bear with me here). It's very true that governments are not well
coordinated - I mean the minister for IT visiting an international
conference (and representing 'India' instead of 'indian government') IMHO
should have been in the papers a week before the fact (because it's a big
positive step/attitude change). And he should make a formal statement when
he comes back about where they see India in the future and how we can do
better, key learnings, etc.

I'm sure there will be good notes and as we discuss them here we'll
naturally come to understand if anything has been 'edited' out. I don't
think that'll be such a problem....

Still rolling with laughter about 'oversight part should not be
included'...
