One standard of transparency and accountability that I'm trying to live
up to is that I try to be open and honest in regard to the ways in which
I and that what I do and what I'm involved with are not perfect.

I can't disclose information that I don't have because it doesn't exist
yet.

However I can be open about the somewhat embarrassing fact that even
four months after the meeting in Delhi, at which the participants
decided by consensus to create the Just Net Coalition and adopted its
foundational document, which we're calling the Delhi Declaration, we
still don't have a formal list of founding members.

This is the reason why the list of participants of that meeting in Delhi
is still serving as a proxy. It's the best available approximation.

We simply don't have a precise list of founding members yet.

This is a known shortcoming of where we are in the process of getting
organized, and it is being worked on.

Greetings,
Norbert
co-convenor, Just Net Coalition
