AW: [governance] My reservation to Wuzhen Declaration

Sat Nov 22 05:11:24 EST 2014

Here is what I found sofar: http://de.scribd.com/doc/247566581/World-Internet-Conference-Draft-Declaration

This is the draft by the organizers which was not adopted, as Izumi told me. Does somebody have a final document?

Hi

the english Version of the conference Website is now closed:
http://www.wicnews.cn/indexen.shtml

Does anybody have any more information on the adopted text of the final document, its status etc.? Are there text of speeches or transcripts from meetings (beyond Izumi notes)available?

Thanks

Wolfgang
