Last year, I sent the following to the Ministry
of Information, Communication and Technology:

   "The group has a mailing list where every member can express his
    or her opinion. The group takes its decisions by consensus. As
    an example, the representatives of the group for the discussions
    about the .mu ccTLD were selected by consensus."

There isn't a "cadre juridique" for the
above. The group does not vote to select
representatives. In a voting system a person
could get his/her friends to attend a meeting and
vote for him/her. By doing it through consensus
the group gets to assess the advantages and
disadvantages of choosing that person as its representative.

The members of the Mauritius Internet Users are
on this mailing list. They are all informed
about the selection as an email is sent to the
mailing list. I do not read the local newspapers regularly. :-)

Yes.

I had an informal discussion about having a legal
entity so as to fit within "le cadre
juridique". It might be a bit different from the
Mauritius Internet Users as I prefer not to lose
the ability we currently have to respond to unforeseen events.

There is the following text from Jean-Max Mejean:

   "On le sait, on l’a dit, « la critique est
aisée, mais l’art est difficile »,
    certes, mais sans « liberté de blâmer, il n’est pas d’éloges flatteurs »,
    écrivait aussi Beaumarchais."

La critique peut aussi nous aider a surmonter les
obstacles. C'est tout un art de savoir accepter
la critique. As you said, the objective is to
choose a course of action and stick to it.
