You should IMHO keep the difference clear between issue-focused working 
groups (which need to be open, bottom-up, informal, online), the main 
yearly meeting (which needs to be open but might be more formal), and a 
coordinating / steering process (which could be closed and very formal).

I'm glad you say this and I agree, but I originally, when I proposed the 
idea to the caucus, most key people were opposed to any kind of 
"coordinating group". Glad to see the change of direction.
