[NCSG-EC] Approval of new members

[David Morar]

Absolutely! I went through some of the applications and have decided to
vote no on the following individual members because they do not look to be
in fact representing non-commercial perspectives. I may be mistaken, and if
that is the case, please let me know, but I think from last time, it was @Robin
Gross <robin at ipjustice.org> who pointed out that we have to make sue they
are actually representing such perspectives. In any case, the list of folks:

Gabriel Karsan - not non-commercial oriented

Prince Andrew Livingstone Zutah - not non-commercial oriented

Betty Fausta - not non-commercial oriented

Arnold Alimo - not non-commercial oriented

Hafiz Faooq - not non-commercial oriented

Gaurav Vedi - not non-commercial oriented


Separately, one person Jacklyn Appiah Sakyi does not have enough info to
figure out if they are in fact non-commercial in their non-egigfa position.

But since the vote does not have to be unanimous, I think it's safe to
move forward with my no votes, unless others feel similarly.

Thank you very much,
Have a great day,
David
