As for POC representativeness, we all hope to improve it with the new
composotion & selcetion rules to be approved shortly.
As to its oversight being public/private I think that we are missing an
important point: POC is basically an "independent" oversight body (or
"external" if you prefer). Most of its members (all except the two CORE
appointees, ie, Alan H and myself) have no personal interest (let alone
financial) in the operations they are supposed to oversee, nor they have been
selected by entities having those interests.

I'd like the concept of "independnet" expclicitly added to your definition.
