Since there seem to be several people who are tired of these big-ego 
cultivating exchanges on this list, we could actually try to work on the 
Andrew's compilation of contributions which he circulated on Dec 13. 
(subject line: input into Brazil summit). There has been no substantive 
response to this as far as I am aware of.

The amount of text is a bit daunting and not easy to handle for a 
mailing list. One way to go about this would be to decide with which 
section we want to start and have someone drafting a shorter text out of 
all answers. My suggestion would be to start with questions 3:

What is the case for reform of these arrangements and on what grounds 
(better protection of human rights and democracy, better representation 
from global south etc)
and 4:
What existing proposals for reform are you aware of and how do they meet 
the criteria for reform you set out in the previous question
