Ian

I suggest that you add to the criteria of selection - relationships 
with, and ability to reach out to, marginalised groups who have remained 
on the periphery of discussions and decisions about IG (which impacts 
every person in this world in fundamental ways, and re-distributes 
economic, social, cultural and political power, in a manner which can 
both further centralise or decentralise these various kinds of powers)

thanks, parminder
