The main subject for WSIS was bridging the digital divide. But the ITU used
the regional PrepComs between PrepCom1 (2002) and PrepCom2 (June 2003) to
include Internet Governance into the list of issues with the aim get back
what they "lost" in Minneapolis.

But how did that actually happen, more specifically? I was under the
impression that questions about ICANN (and Internet governance) were first
brought to the fore by some civil society members - notably, members who
were neither from North America nor from Western Europe (at the PrepCom in
Paris?), and who had been involved in ICANN processes prior to WSIS, if you
see what I mean?

P.S. In any case it appears with that we were coming full circle, doesn't
it? Which always makes for nice stories to tell our grand children,
including those who already are as well as the others still to be.
