Whilst I had no problem with them personally, your more emphatic changes were specifically objected to on the list, and I made a judgment that to introduce them would bring the group further from consensus rather than closer to it.

> What is missing is a bit of praise for the Secreatariat and the MAG for all that they have done. In the absence of positive comments, if the IGC merely points out what is missing ( or what is wrong with the working of the MAG) and somewhere else express doubts about the extension of the mandate, the net effect would be negative. 

For the future, please post such remarks earlier in the process. :-)  For now we are seeking a YES or a NO.  The same applies to the other suggestions in your email, such as introducing commentary on WSIS.  Even so, thanks for participating. :-)
