This sends a good result. And the ad hoc process seems to work in the direction of inclusivity, especially since it no longer gives solitary decision making status to a broken caucus.<br></div></blockquote><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>
Sala: From the outset, in terms of how the IGC conducted itself during Bali, post Bali and towards urging cross civil society group dialogue (which occurred offlist), we were adamant that the group was opened to include others. At no time was there any attempt to be the solitary decision making voice. We are certainly not arrogant nor foolish to think for one micro second that the IGC has solitary decision making status. </div></blockquote><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>
I am actually heartened that IGC and BB did not both participate, since until there is evidence from studies like Nnenna's, we cannot really consider them separate entities.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div>Sala: I cannot speak for Best Bits and neither can I speak for the IGC. I will say that there is alot of room to have transparent mechanisms to show where people are. There is strength and diversity in terms of active participation in a variety of foras but where it comes to affecting the gene pool or the outcomes for selection, Nnenna's study will definitely come in handy. Before we think this is random and only attributed to this process, as far as Brazil preps goes, I also seeing it happening in other circles. There is a need for Version 2 of the Civil society selection process towards accountability and transparency that needs to be discussed but not right now as we have pressing things to do. One of which is concentrate on submissions as Jeanette had alluded to earlier.<div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>

And it is a good list of names.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div>Sala: Indeed!<br><blockquote type="cite"><div>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="FONT-FAMILY: ; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 13pt"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">The selection committee was formed from representatives
of the networks of NCSG (Robin Gross), APC (Chat Garcia Ramilo), Diplo (Virginia
Paque), and Best Bits (Jeremy Malcolm). Ian Peter was an independent
facilitator. Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) was involved with the process and
the call for nominations, but when its representative and sole co ordinator at
this stage (Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro) withdrew at a late stage it was not
possible to provide a replacement in the short time frame. Hopefully these
difficulties within IGC will be resolved for future efforts (with IGC co
ordinator elections due now). However, with 3 ex-coordinators of IGC involved
with the selection process we believe its interests were fully
represented.</font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="FONT-FAMILY: ; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 13pt"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Calls from nominations were invited on the mailing lists
of Diplo, Best Bits, IGC, NCSG and other civil society networks. Diplo
community undertook a process of narrowing its large pool of nominations to two
names before consideration by other selection committee members, and the result
of the various calls from various networks was that 13 names were considered by
the committee. The final names were arrived at by consensus of all the
representatives involved.</font><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 13pt"> </span></p>
