Dear Robin,

Many thanks. I have one question and please forgive me if the answer to my
questions have already been discussed in some emails. There are so many
emails threads that it is easy to miss key information and get a little
confused :).

I read a recent email  (last Thursday) from Adiel  informing that they were
looking for the nomination of 2 reps for the Multistakeholder High Level
Committee, 2 reps for the Multistakeholder Executive Committee and 5 reps
for the 1Net Steering Committee. That Civil Society, as well as other
sectors, will appoint those 9 reps. And in you email below you just call
for nomination for the Steering Committee. Thus I was wondering, what is
the planned process for the other two committees since in the case of the
three committees, the deadline for nominations given by Adiel is December
15.

Best,

Marie-laure
