Dear colleagues, There is a *widely-circulated* statement in Chinese Internet that Mr. Ward Cunningham has expressed that, "starting from Wiki, the U.S. leadership in Internet will be gradually overtaken by China". Is it true? I cannot find the original quote in English. The original statement in Chinese goes as below: "维基创始人沃德*坎 宁安（Ward Cunningham）就曾表示：从维基开始，美国全球互联网的领袖位置可能要逐渐被中国所替代。" My translation of this statement is provided here: "Wiki-founder Mr. Ward Cunningham has expressed that: Starting from Wiki, the U.S. leadership position in Internet will be gradually overtaken by China." By *widely-circulated* I mean that I found about 1,500 search results from Google Hong Kong (the equivalent of Google China now) with the phrase: "从维基开始，美国全球互联网的领袖位置可能要逐渐被中国所替代". The results were about 250 search results from Baidu, and about 1,500 search results from Yahoo! China. Best, han-teng liao
