[governance] Re: [bestbits] Letters from Indian Civil Society organisations to the Chair of NetMundial regarding appointment of civil society co-chair

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

There are some names there that I recognize and respect for their contributions. Others possibly less so.

This was simply an exercise in pointing out the aptness of avri's statement here.  If she knows this person to the extent she does, and the organizations that signed this letter do not, that is about the same as my not recognizing at least two or three out of the orgs in that group.

Which I agree is knee jerk but serves to highlight, by example, what appears to be a knee jerk reaction from said group of cs orgs.

They are also a very diverse group, that they are so united in this is a suggestion that we should pay attention. Your knee seems to be jerking again.
