[governance] New MAG announced

[Adam Peake]

From the press release announcing the new MAG "All Advisory Group
members serve in their personal capacity, but are expected to have
extensive linkages with their respective stakeholder groups."

I think difficult to have a liaison or facilitator. It should be
enough that people joining MAG make a sincere effort to reach out to
their stakeholder group (and individuals will probably imagine that
stakeholder group differently), take views they hear to MAG
discussions, and pass information back. Regularly.

Hope all those selected enjoy it.
