[governance] Re: [bestbits] Fwd: Re: [discuss] cgi.br release regarding Brazil Global MSM on Internet Governance

[Carlos A. Afonso]

The obvious meaning is simply that the two structures (CGI.br and the
/1Net platform) are helping to organize the meeting -- they do not "own"
it. The phrase could be better written, I agree.

BTW, as soon as the committees are formed and start their work, the
local organizing group (LOG) will lose its meaning and will dissolve.
But I think this is obvious too.
