I have had a chance to catch up on emails and I am shocked and equally disgusted. I had thought I should not reply but hey....I know it is a challenge for you as the moderator but my advice to all is to stick to ICT issues, if you cannot you really should be struck from this list. <br><br>We have had many healthy and useful debates, let us not degrade the great opportunity we have to interact on this online forum. There are many countries where this would not be allowed, however productive and innocent it was. Let us not abuse our opportunities. KICTANET has been used as a model in many parts of Africa, and there is still room for
it......personality issues MUST NOT BE ALLOWED! Please respect this space....I do understand Consumers must have a voice but do put your issues in appropriate language and stick to the issues.....if it high cost of the Internet....just say so and let others give suggestions etc.<br><br>Best,<br><br>Nyaki<br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> "jwalubengo@mmu.ac.ke" <jwalubengo@mmu.ac.ke><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> elizaslider@yahoo.com<br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cc:</span></b> KICTAnet ICT Policy Discussions <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Thursday, September 10, 2009 12:58:21 PM<br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> Re:

Guys,<br><br>I am equally shocked at the amount of venom we can emit online in such a<br>short time. As the moderator of the list, I have had to suspend Onyango<br>Hatari's posts (which are all queued up for delivery but after I screen<br>them). So Onyango Hatari plse just hold your horses.<br><br>I must also confess that we are yet to constitute a fool-proof mechanism<br>that could match online identities to physical real-life identities - that<br>way people would be more accountable to what they say (the recent Kenyan<br>judicial ruling on someone who send a defamatory SMS (text message) being<br>a notable legal precedent for all us)<br><br>Having said that, lets all be diplomatic, where a Diplomat has been once<br>defined as someone who can tell you to go to hell and you actually look<br>forward to taking the trip ;-) In other words, there are ways in which we<br>can disagree without getting (digitally) physical. Otherwise all
these<br>online forums would lose their value that has been widely acclaimed as a<br>role model for multi-stakeholder, bottom-up, consultative processes.<br><br>regards,<br>walu.<br>nb: not sure why my regular <a ymailto="mailto:jwalu@yahoo.com" href="mailto:jwalu@yahoo.com">jwalu@yahoo.com</a> not working.<br>> Bill<br>><br>> My internet teacher at AVU taught me one thing.
