I must say, with everything that is going on, there seems to be a lot of work and a great need for coordination.  Your regular emails have been a great help Bill, but any suggestions on how to keep on top of the traffic would be appreciated.  

My approach rests on three pillars: coffee, mail folders, and a crippling inability to prioritize between paid and unpaid activities.  You might want to ask someone else…

That would be at the NCSG level rather than NCUC.  I can’t make next week’s call but think Rafik had something related on the agenda…

>>> The representatives were chosen from a field of 33 applications for HLC and 24 applications for EMC, drawn from a widely disseminated call for nominations across various civil society networks, including IGC, Best Bits, APC, NCSG, Diplo, and associated civil society networks , and including nominations from other CS individuals as well. No nominations were denied full consideration.
>>> 
>>> The full list of candidates was posted on the main civil society lists some time ago (let me know if you need a copy). We thank all the volunteers who put their names forward – this was an incredibly talented field and making decisions on final candidates was subsequently a significant challenge.
>>> 
>>> The selections were made by a Nomcom consisting of Virginia Paque (Diplo Foundation), Jeremy Malcolm (Best Bits), Chat Garcia Ramilo (APC) and Robin Gross (NCSG). Ian Peter was an independent non voting Chair.
>>> 
>>> We have attempted to find a balance among the candidates who best fit our criteria for selection such factors as gender, geography, advocacy, knowledge, expertise, and constituency. While we had challenges, particularly in geography, we trust that the combination of candidates broadly represent the civil society community involved in this process. We believe that they will bring civil society perspectives and advocacy to the discussions and ensure that important issues of concern are not neglected.
