<p class="MsoNormal">May be, Greg, you have not read the whole mail of George when is says one should read before responding. Nor read the mail of JFC when he says that he will consider George's mail (it is more kindly said) only when George will apply his
own rules to himeself. This response of yours only gives the feeling that you do not know how to comment JFC definitions.
<br>
<br>
<br>
JFC, I am quite interested in your clear explanation of what MSism and polycracy (might) mean. However, I feel you make a dichotomy between those two, or at least between diktyarchy and polycracy while one could imagine (it seems it is what we do all the day
long) a complementarity between those two. On your French list you use the idea of the multitude having to invest the magnitude's mailing lists in order to keep themselves abreast, I would say, of the way they are going to be coocked. Is that not some forme
of cooperation between the Cook and the cooked?<br>

My response to this post is to point to two of George’s etiquette items:<br>
<br>
9. If there are no responses to a post, posters should not assume that the material they have posted has been agreed to by readers. People on the list generally have busy lives, and often will not respond to posts. Statements such as “no one on the list
has refuted my statement yet" should not lead to the assumption that others agree with it. It is equally likely that the post is judged to be incorrect or irrelevant. Readers have no obligation to correct erroneous material that has been posted to the list
by others.<br>
<br>
5. Successful posts use vocabulary that is simple and whose meaning is well-understood by readers of the list. Successful posts are formatted with some care so that they are easily readable by others.<br>
<br>
And I would also point to my suggested item of etiquette:<br>
<br>
Don’t cross-post, except to provide some basic information that needs to be disseminated widely (e.g., NTIA announcement or Marca Civil), and even this should be avoided. Don’t cross-post opinions or anything that would require a response. Don’t cross-post
replies.<br>

<b>Subject:</b> [discuss] What is MSism?<br>
<br>
The first question should be "what is MSism". I have posted this definition and its comparison with polycracy. I am surprised by the resulting general agreement (no one opposed). I therefore copy it to some other mailing lists, so we have a common working basis.<br>
<br>
----<br>
<br>
<a name="_GoBack"></a>MSism, as we hear of it, is shaped from Doug Engelbart’s (
<a href="http://www.dougengelbart.org/about/dce-bio.html">http://www.dougengelbart.org/about/dce-bio.html</a> ) concepts. It is a diktyarchy (from diktyos: network) i.e. an intergovernance between peer structured autoselected entities. The autoselection process
is based upon the time network/global availability, i.e. the capacity to collectively meet on a mailing list and anytime anywhere. This is to produce the buzz that will exceed the noise of reality and the squawk of the multitude. It is to polycracy the equivalent
of monarchy to democracy. Technically, MS proceeds from a root/server/client hierarchic model (however its slogan is "on an equal footing" [for the leaders only, cf. RFC 6852, Montevideo statement], while polycracy proceeds from a "master and master" open
capability model. <br>
<br>
The difficulty in the extension from democracy to polycracy is that diktyarchy looks democratic to the onlooker: democracy is about decision decentralization; MSism keeps that decision decentralization within its political, business, and societal structures
that dialogue together. Polycracy is actually about decision distribution among political, business, and societal individuals who multilogue together in any manner they wish and decide by themselves.
<br>
<br>
This is why MSism is a method to deploy "reasonable" decisions collectively agreed among mutually accepted share/status/stake-holders, while polycracy is the autopoietic emergence of the life of the multitude through individual considered decisions. Both systems
are adapted to our time. MSism is selected network centric, and polycracy is people centered.
<br>
<br>
In MSism, structures (states and corporates) ally to govern the "others", i.e. the WSIS definition of the "civil society", and sponsor politically acceptable civil society structures. It is an interesting concept by its "mid-up/down" practical capacities of
substitution: it is alliances centered. In its own turn, polycracy accepts substitution but only in its normal role of substitution of subsidiarity: it is people centered.<br>
<br>
What is at stake in here for the Internet Governance is the virtual world built as an ICANN contractual diktyarchy vs. a real world that will progressively erode the NTIA leadership in an operational polycracy. The real question is about whether this evolution
will occur in the most seamless way possible, in the best respect of the "digility" (from digital personality) of everyone.<br>
<br>
This is why I propose to start from what we know, as the WSIS has advised. If we proceed from the person ("centrada en la persona" says the Spanish version of the WSIS declaration) entering the digisphere, i.e. the digitally split vision of its environmental
reality, and considers its digital rights. We can pursue with the inviolability of people’s “digicile� (digital-domicile: using simple, clear, universally understandable notions extending our daily life in the digisphere through direct metaphors can
only help). From there we can then proceed and differentiate what belongs to physical government, ethical behavior, and digital governance.
