btw - my messages to the NCUC are being rejected, so hopefully you will
forward this to them, too.

>Thanks, Veni. That's one idea for criteria.

Sure. The problem if how to fit within the narrow frame of the WG.

>Unless someone confirmed with you, we don't know

No, we don't.
But if it's 30 (which I doubt), then it will be 20 for governments, 10 -
for CS. Logic is simple: it's a WG to the Secretary-General, proposed by
the governmental WG in WSIS - Geneva (I was part of this group then).

>(as you indicate) know the CS portion. We may not

We don't have much of a choice, I believe. The UN usually is very strict in
covering geographic areas. In anycase, it will be wise to suggest at least
10 names - 5 regions, 1 name from South, 1 - from North.

best,
veni
