I had hoped that one or more of civil society members of MAG, especially 
the ones who were either nominated or supported by IGC, would respond to 
this simple and direct question.... Both CSTD IGF improvements group, 
whose report was ratified by the UN GA, and the NetMundial's informal 
outcome document says that stakeholders should manage their nomination 
processes, and it would be transparent and so on... parminder
