From Danielle Gallo's account:
The remainder of the Wednesday session featured a keynote speech by
Brian Kahin of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy
(http://www.whitehouse.gov/WH/EOP/OSTP/html/OSTP_Home-plain.html). Kahin
addressed the future of Internet policy and discussed the effects on
employment and productivity. He presented basic principles focusing on
recognizing the unique qualities of the Internet and creating policy
that will facilitate international commerce. One of Kahin's last
points was the need for industry self-regulation. Kahin suggests that
self-regulation creates more efficient markets. Kahin also cited the
need for well-defined principles and international agreements as
fundamental to success. International agreement appears to be a
difficult process, as all parts of the world do not necessarily agree
on major issues, such as privacy. Although Kahin strongly urged the
private sector to lead such a movement, it seemed doubt surfaced among
some attendees as to whether this is possible.

It's coming up at some point. There will be 16 hours running today.
I just started an 8 hour tape at 8:30 am. Right now it's showing Peter
Lewis and some other journalists.

It's hot. I enjoy Bruce's off the cuff comments that I caught in the
lobby just as much, I've asked him if I can ride along with him to do a
documentary on his trip to Budapest to the hippe cyber summit deal.
