'public' as in related to public matters, not as in full public 
view..... although the two concepts should be closely connected, which 
is what I am arguing for.

Woe betide a civil society group that desists from raising questions 
about public processes simply becuase it has its own skeletons to hide. 
It is shameful to even mention it. McTim, if you have issues with the CS 
selection process, please mention these issues here. I for one am sure 
to join the discussion. Please be explicit. But dont tell us that since 
we have things to hide ourselves we should not ask questions from other 
public actors. In that case we can as well shut this IGC up. What a 
logic??!!
