[governance] IGC Nomcom - Slate of candidates

[Jeanette Hofmann]

Hi Carlos,

I am not sure the number of nominees really matters that much. Since it 
is unlikely that civil society will be able to increase its share on the 
MAG, less than half of the nominees have a chance to be selected. More 
candidates from a region means that the secretariat has more choice. It 
certainly won't lead to a larger representation from that region.
