Re: [DC3] DC3 Digest, Vol 32, Issue 14

I see it as not so much free vs. community as whether there is a sustainable model rather than one dependent upon a benevolent donor. A donor can play a role in establishing in idea if there is a path towards communities funding their connectivity be the community very local or national. The other issue is whether there is spotty coverage or a path for assuming what I’m calling Ambient Connectivity everywhere. Finally is this infrastructure or does one have to login which is what I call web-fi and not full connectivity.

As DC3 has continuously produced outputs, we have a session slot by default but we should send a draft session proposal by 29 June. As discussed at Rightscon<http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_…54>, the DC3 session could have a threefold structure featuring the following parts: 1. presentation of (at least some of) the initiatives featured in the 2018 DC3 Report (that should be the "CN Manual" mentioned in my previous email) 2. discussion with people in their early phase of CN development to understand the challenges they are facing 3. discussion with potential partners FYI, the 90 minutes time slot has been reestablished (thanks to all those who commented during the IGF stocktaking consultation requesting restauration of the 90 min slot!!). The session should be as much as possible, multistakeholder, gender balanced and geographically diverse. I propose to have up to 3 speakers in part 1; 2 for part 2; and 2 (or maybe 3) in part 3. The speakers for part 1 will be chosen amongst the contributors of the CN Manual. If anyone is already sure to submit a contribution for the CN manual, please send a message (on-list or a PM) so that I can include your name in the DRAFT session description. As regards part 2, Nico Pace offered to help liaise with people currently developing CNs and facing challenges. Nico can you suggest some names? As regards part 3, I was thinking that IFLA could be good (I am CCing Donna) and perhaps one Intergovernmental org that is dealing with CNs e.g. CITEL or African Union. Lastly, after having read what Google India is doing, providing Free WiFi at Indian train stations, I have started wondering if it could also be a potential partner to be included in the discussion https://qz.com/1300522/googles-free-wifi-at-railway-stations-is-a-way-of-li… What do you think?
