[bestbits] Call for expressions of interest: 1net steering committee

[Valeria Betancourt]

Dear all,

We would like to propose Anriette's name for the 1net steering  
committee role.

Going as CS representatives instead of as representatives of a  
particular network would be much better, if possible.
