I was trying to remind you of something :-)

I should probably have written "So the secretariat and MAG stepped 
up"  rather than "So the secretariat and MAG stepped in."

I know the MAG monitored email addresses, English, Spanish, French, 
Portuguese. I kind of arranged that to happen (the monitoring, not 
the setting up of the actual lists, that was Chengetai or coordinated 
by Chengetai with the local hosts.)

And you monitored the chat rooms, and had it read to display if needed, right?

When I wrote "So the secretariat and MAG stepped in" I didn't mean to 
imply anyone stopped any dynamic coalition from doing anything, we 
simply did something that needed to be done.
