    However the fact is that DESA did ask for, to use your words

    re-election......"
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">This to me is clearly asking for
      recertifying extant members. And I think it is a healthy
      practice.... Not that I have anything against any extant member. <br>
    </p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Accordingly, I think extant members,
      on their own nomination or of other people, should also be
      considered for nomination, as is the express desire of UNDESA. And
      this has always been the practice. <br>

              <br>
              The below 36 people have been self nominated or were
              nominated by another IGC member to be on the 2013 MAG (the
              Internet Governance Forum's Multistakeholder Advisory
              Group). <br>
              <br>
              It's a far larger list than any previous one with which I
              am familiar. And the Nominating Committee has very little
              time to make a selection. <br>
              <br>
              So that we may properly review all eligible candidates,
              the Nominating Committee would greatly appreciate your
              addressing the following as soon as practicable. <br>
              <ul>
                <li>If you are<b> not on this</b> list and were
                  inadvertently left off, please inform the NomCom
                  immediately.</li>
                <li>If you are <b>on the list</b> and wish to be
                  removed - that is, you do not wish to serve on the
                  2013 MAG - please inform the NomCom as soon as
                  possible.</li>
                <li>Those indicating an interest in serving on the MAG
                  and wishing to send supporting documents, or having
                  others send supporting documents to their nominations,
                  should assure their arrival by c.o.b. Thursday.  This
                  is extremely tight but we must have the final decision
                  completed by Saturday with nominations to IGF by
                  January 21.<br>
                </li>
              </ul>
              The preliminary full list of nominees are:<br>
