Hello
I’ve mentioned this to a couple people privately and should probably state publicly as well that I will be participating in the High Level Panel process as an “expert” advisor, e.g. in London I’ll be giving a talk about the nature of IG, running a break out session, etc. I believe there may be a couple other people from other SGs similarly appointed, TBC. I don’t know how they intend to deal with the request for a CS “representative” panel member, but understand nothing will happen in time for the London meeting.
I have suggested publicly announcing the agenda and providing options for people to provide written inputs, we’ll see what happens. The London meeting is in four days and there’s a lot late rushing around to pull it together, so it’s a bit difficult to predict exactly how everything will play out.
Best,
Bill
Hi
All discussions spilling across multiple listservs these days…
What I just said on the Best Bits list was
I’ve been swamped with other things and have lost track, so a nomenclature question—is this “steering committee” framing locked in? In BA we talked about it being a “coordination group,” which sounds a bit less Politburo.
Either way, I would argue against having members of the group responsible for filling other groups able to in effect appoint themselves.
So I’ve raised it.
Cheers
Bill
There hasn't been any discussion about precluding someone from participating in one committee if they are also participating in another committee. So there has been no agreement to make a rule of ineligibility based on that. If someone wants to raise it, we can address it, but it hasn't been suggested as of yet. I would think there will be a desire to want to spread the workload among more participants and not double-up committee members too often, but no rule against it, instead leaving it up to a case by case situation.
Thanks,
Robin

Do you know if those in 1net steering committee will not be eligible for any of the seats at the Brazilian committees? My name is being mentioned for 1net steering within BB folks, but I'm trying to figure out where I would be more useful for our stakeholder group.
