I have to assume that this comment comes from the fact you haven't engaged all through the CCWG's process.

I have in fact engaged throughout. As the CCWG has preferred, I have observed primarily and not been as vocal as some others. The major benefit is that I could reserve judgement and not leap to a conclusion and then feel honour bound to defend it.

I'd encourage all of us to display some confidence in the multistakeholder process we're all engaged with, and specifically that words which rightly or wrongly can be read as suggesting a lack of such confidence, or a rubbishing of the quality or integrity of its outputs, be avoided?

Wise words indeed. However I would remind you that one of the joys of the multistakeholder process is that I am entitled to my opinion. I would also remind you that words cut both ways and I have been on calls, watched the chat, read the mailings lists that almost hurt my feelings as someone who has devoted quite a bit of his time to this organisation and community. Then I laughed and moved on. Mike
