think the FC should be able to invite members and observers and chairs
involvement with FC should happen as needed. But I wonder why you are
specifically against pc chair being an observer? Can you please provide
your reasons?

want to come to a reformed language that does not necessarily require FC be
in ICANN meetings, is in line with our charter but also if the opportunity
arises enables FC to attend ICANN and other meetings. Hence I would like to
tell NCSG EC that I don't agree with these provisions that you have passed
and that it was not a consensus decision. I have discussed this many many
times and I have no desire to continue and I find it quite amusing that you
first don't want to come to a compromise and consensus  and then ask me not
to do a dissent. FC is in charge of creating resources for NCSG to do
policy. It's not to be a strain on resources.

Sorry I thought I sent this on the day of the meeting. Seems like I have
