If anyone has questions about this, the "invited experts" who managed to
wedge their feet in the door at the Kampala meeting were myself, Nishal
Goburdhan (AfriNIC), and Michuki Mwangi (ISOC). Any of us would be happy
to discuss it. We were there by the grace of the U.S. delegation, which
fights the good fight on the Internet's behalf in intergovernmental
negotiations like this.
Note that there's another big fight coming up over whether the ITU should
be allowed to screw up IP address allocation and aggregation. They're not
just trying to screw up BGP. Badness abounds.
