[edit] CODESA I and CODESA II

hasn't there been CODESA I and CODESA II? --Severino 17:15, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, see The origins and implementation of the Constitution. This needs to be included in the article. Zaian 08:01, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

the ultimative source is http://sahistory.org.za/pages/specialprojects/10years/codesa.htm. if i understood correctly, codesa I was held in december 1991 and the actual codesa I (the plenary session) lasted only a few days. working groups were appointed to deal with specific issues. these working groups continued their negotiations over the next month. in may 1992 codesa II took place but failed due to discrepancies. the breakthrough in the negotiations came later, in 1993. the article in the current version tells the story of the whole negotiation-process, not only of the actual codesa!!! therefore the article maybe should be cleant up and parts of it removed to other articles (history of south africa?). i began to make changes but then i cancelled it because of the reasons mentioned before. --Severino 22:01, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

i've changed the article now. maybe its not the best solution to mention the bulk of the negotiation process under "other negotiations" and it should be removed to an other article. --Severino 17:55, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
