We are not advocating anything, That is the process - take it or leave 
it. And I note that you havent left it - did you not offer to be 
selected by the IGC nomcom to be CS representative (representative as in 
representivity) on the MAG, and your name was actually forwarded by the 
nomcom ?

You identify yourself above as technical community (if you dont I am 
still ready to go by your self identification, but just be clear and 
dont confuse people here) ..... have you been ejected from civil 
society. You have been one of the most active participants in drafting 
CS positions here, and as above offered yourself for, and was selected 
by the group as, CS nominee for MAG.... So, McTim, what exactly are you 
talking about.....

And BTW, at WSIS ISOC registered itself as private sector when the 
option was given to it to choose between CS and private sector as the 
too only available options. So, again not sure what are you talking 
about ISOC having been ejected by folks in CS at WSIS...
