Re: submit a milestone to my Web History Timeline?

Hello All,

As the Web history is related with the Internet history: may the comment I
sent to the writers of a document on the present situation of internet in
relation with the Internet architecture be relevant to your Web History
project, Mr.John...?


 "Considerations on Consolidating Internet and the Internet Architecture" (
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-arkko-iab-internet-consolidation-00 )

Reading the document, especially noting what Carpenter B. wrote in the
"Architectural Principles of the Internet" about "connectivity", reminded
me about the International Telecommunication Union of the United Nations'
report "Fast-forward Progress: Leveraging tech to achieve the global
goals"--which is part of the current situation of the Internet as it
referred to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals recognizing
the role of "connectivity" to spur humanity:

forward_progress_report_414709%20FINAL.pdf



Another source which may be relevant is the ITU's report "Measuring
Information Society 2018":

https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-D/Statistics/Pages/publications/misr2018.aspx

Reading the architecture-discusslist@ietf on the topic suggested me to
think of such architecture --referring to Carpenter B. on connectivity, the
Internet Protocol and end-to-end intellegence-- as something struggling for
its meanings and values which means at the sane time it is about making
those architectural elements solid--to note about their historicity for the
contemporary human society of the world, that is the possibilities of their
defiguration, deconstruction --to say about the possibilities of
refiguration/reconstruction by destructions... and thus new presences of
the Internet architecture...



The report on tech  and information society said above give examples of the
struggles as nations through institutional (net)works tries to have
meanings and values about ICTs among others there is the Internet...

Regard,

Guntur Wiseno Putra
