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

[Nnenna Nwakanma]

Thanks, Jeremy for the update.  And please kindly extend our appreciation
to the team working with you. Here is my input:

   1. Some consideration should be given to policy experience
   2. We may need to add a male European/ a male African for balance
   3. An interesting name is one person who I know if from the media, a CS
   sector that we have not heard much from.

Going by the above, I will recommend the addition of Vladimir Radunovic and
Remmy Nweke.

Vlada has policy and legal experience and is an IG old timer and EuroDig
facilitator. Remmy has just published a book: "10 years of ICT reporting"
and also has IG experience, organising forums in Nigeria and contributing
in West Africa.

My 2 cents
