Still not clear which group led the process of formulating and proposing 
the statement.... which I understand, as per the way Bestbits group and 
its steering committee is propositioned, cant be the steering committee 
itself leading the process... But are you saying that in this particular 
case indeed the steering committee led the process of drafting, 
finalising and proposing the statement....?

We need to reach a position where we can begin getting clear responses 
to the all-important process issues posed to the custodians of civil 
society processes... Not only  now but also at the BestBits face to face 
meeting quite a lot of such questions got no answer, or at any rate not 
a clear enough one...
