[NCUC-EC] Formulation and Invitation to join the Task Force on NCUC Procedural Rules

[Tapani Tarvainen]

Hi Farzaneh,

If I've understood correctly, you can't exclude other constituencies
if you call it open meeting. And the only other option is closed.

In the past we have, for example, called EC meetings closed but then
announced all of our members will be welcome.

I guess you could also make a meeting open and simply ignore what
non-members say, although that'd be somewhat awkward, too.
