Thank you Yrjö for the timely reporting to us.
In the summary, the last para is of importance to us.

9. The stakeholders invited to participate are requested to coordinate
among themselves and propose five representatives which should reflect
the diversity of every stakeholder category, with a view to providing
a balanced representation.

As our NomCom is working to select the five names, this corresponds to
our selection.
