Uhm, pardon me if I did not submit a 10-page Bylaws draft :-)
In any case, my main modifications would be:
- appointing WG Chairs and adopting documents falls within the mandate
of the Bureau (I would rename it to something less bureaucratic,
please!)
- initially, the Bureau is appointed by Annan with balanced
representation among the 3 stakeholder groups (WGIG-like)
- then, each of the groups comes up with proposals on how to select
future Bureau members, which are to be adopted by the Bureau
Is this clear enough?
