2. While many international experts offered advice of one sort or another to the commission, the author was one of three who worked with it closely. The other two were Yash Pal Ghai of Kenya and Guy Carcassonne of France. The author recruited other experts to draft papers on issues identified by the commission. These papers are available at www.cic.nyu.edu/conflict/conflict_translations. html.
3. The commission drafted the text in Dari and translated the working text into Pushtu as needed. The UN provided unofficial English translations of the drafts for its own use and that of the international experts permitted to see the text. At the CLJ, the text was distributed in a bilingual edition in Dari and Pushtu.
