I did not dismiss those points. I said I would modify the title in my
response to Izumi, who was the first to complain about it.
Robert, a message was recently sent to the Plenary list titled, "Civil
society groups launch website...." That, as I explained earlier, is the
sense in which the term would be used.
Do you object to that? Are you going to go to WIPO and ask for
trademark rights in the term ;-)

Robert, NOBODY can speak on behalf of civil society as a whole. I have
been saying that on this and the WSIS plenary list for almost two years.
Not me, and not any collection f WSIS subgroups.
Any attempt to assert a monopoly on the term or to regulate its use by
the WSIS-CS hierarchy is illegitimate.

Don't worry, based on my tremendous success here I plan to open
franchises all over cyberspace. Seriously, it made sense to start here.
