I replied to you off-list on this, but for the benefit of the list too... yes, this is expected.  The way that the coordination group is working is that each participant (of which Diplo is one) polls its own members for their recommendations, using their own process.  All the names gathered will then be discussed in the coordination group which will try to reach a consensus on them.  So Diplo's call, like this thread, is part of that process.
