[bestbits] [governance] Re: NMI and the Brazilian CGI.br

[Joly MacFie]

At our meeting with Fadi in NYC yesterday he seemed to be distancing the
NMI process from the WEF

Earlier he spoke of the undeniable need for a forum for nation states to
discuss non-technical Internet issues. Later he described the NMI as a
"blank slate" waiting for bottom-up initiatives. (I'll post full video
later today)

So, perhaps he is coming to accept that the two ideas are not necessarily
entirely compatible?
