  Dear Jane:
  McTim has said it well -- Internet Governance (IG) is about
  all the things you mentioned and more. While looking at IG, we
  need focus and discuss on all issues, actors and divides. From
  Infrastructure and Standardization, to Legal issues, Economic
  issues, Development issues, Socio-Cultural issues and more.
  Certainly, the Internet touches just about every aspect of
  human life. And when we have good Internet Governance, we will
  all (globally) share the Internet with knowledge and
  understanding and, indeed, everyone shall easily enjoy its
  fruits and benefits.
  Go to [1]http://www.eaigf.or.ke/registration.html, to register
  for East AFrica IGF.
  Have a good and a blessed week ahead.
  Kind regards

  D) All of the above (and more).
  IG used to have a more narrow definition, that of coordination
  of
  resources and standards essential to the operation of the net.
   WSIS
  processes however resulted in a much broader definition, to
  wit:
  "Internet governance is the development and application by
  governments, the private sector, and civil society, in their
  respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules,
  decision-making
  procedures, and programmes that shape the evolution and use of
  the
  Internet. "
  So basically anything and everything can be called IG.
