University of Japan), Contact: Izumi Aizu izumi@anr.org<br><br>
We tried to reorganize the first section of declaration, which was 
a<br>
substantial work, and inserted a new concept/term
&quot;Vernacular&quot;<br>
to give stronger emphasis on local or our own culture and
content.<br><br>
Also tried to include some mention on homeless, street children and
victims of natural disasters and military conflicts.<br><br>
Please see the attached file for more details.<br><br>
Many thanks,<br><br>

GLOCOM just sent the attached as our submission to the intersessional
process.<br><br>
3 issues:&nbsp; accessibility for disabled and elderly, Internet names
and addresses, and participation in policymaking.<br><br>
If you are making comments, the address to send to is
&lt;wsis.ap@itu.int&gt;&nbsp; There is a mailto link on the WSIS home
page that gives you the wrong address (it brings up
