[bestbits] 2013 report from Best Bits interim steering commitee

[Ian Peter]

Great report, Jeremy. Best Bits are to be congratulated for some excellent results at a time when civil society as represented in IGC was factionalised, divided, and non productive. 

It will be interesting to see what the future brings for both IGC and Best Bits, and how the inter-relationship pans out over time. In the mean time Best Bits is making an excellent current contribution which I hope continues.

Subject: [bestbits] 2013 report from Best Bits interim steering commitee

Please find attached a 2013 report from the Best Bits interim steering committee, in response to a good suggestion last November from Anriette Esterhuysen that this would improve transparency, and lay a path for renewal of the steering committee after the interim group had served one year. 

Even for those who did not have concerns about transparency, you will still find the report useful to read, because of the way that it maps the different workstreams that have been undertaken or proposed last year.  It is very easy to get lost with different activities and conversations going on in different places, so we hope this helps to make things much clearer! 

If anyone has any questions about the report please feel free to ask.
