[governance] 1net steering committee - civil society representation

[Avri Doria]

Hi,

This sends a good result. And the ad hoc process seems to work in the direction of inclusivity, especially since it no longer gives solitary decision making status to a broken caucus.

I am actually heartened that IGC and BB did not both participate, since until there is evidence from studies like Nnenna's, we cannot really consider them separate entities.

And it is a good list of names.
