Thank you Olivier.

Nice blog.

Separation of concerns of "Technical" and "Managerial" has been into discussions several times. There is no single formula to achieve this as of now.

I suggest reading the article titled "The Technological Sublime: Incredible, terrifying, or both?" at:

The Technological Sublime: Incredible, terrifying, or both?<https://www.arcual.art/blog/the-technological-sublime-incredible-terrifying-or-both#:~:text=often%20conflicting%20ways.-,Much%20like%20the%20sublime%20in%20art%2C%20technology%20evokes%20both%20awe,greater%20detail%20during%20this%20article.>
Much like the sublime in art, technology evokes both awe and a sense of unease. Here, we deep dive further into this duality.

Subject: [CPWG] ICANN Blog: The Global Digital Compact: A Top-down Attempt to Minimize the Role of The Technical Community

An interesting new ICANN blog post:

https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/the-global-digital-compact-a-top-down-attempt-to-minimize-the-role-of-the-technical-community-21-08-2023-en

This one's likely to be causing some ripples in the Internet Governance landscape.
But some are already asking why are the other RIRs and ISOC not co-signatories?
And how about the IETF & World Wide Web foundation?

Altogether, it seems like an incomplete set of I* organisations. Or was the piece perhaps meant just as an opinion piece to start a discussion?

Kindest regards,

Olivier
