[NCSG-PC] Comment on Membership structure of EPDP

[Arsène Tungali]

Hi Farzaneh, thanks for whatching the list :)

Keith literally ignored my message, this is telling.

I also agree that we need to continue pushing for this until it is
resolved (or we reach a comprimise) and not doing so in time will
result in us being busy fighting other battles and forget about this
one.

We should indeed have the same number of reps within the NCPH (which
should be 6 not 9, or at least 3) and have only 1 from the ACs. I am
still wondering how Keith came to suggest this inequality between CSG
and NCSG.
