It would be nice, yes.

True. In this particular case I expect exactly that will happen,
as I don't see how we could get a proper process in place in time.
We'll see how it works out.

Just finding all civil society organizations is hard enough,
let alone getting them to agree... we'd need to get this NomCom
somehow officially blessed by the IGF or something.
But if we can get enough support for it, i.e., sufficiently
