Dear Mili,
Thank you for your email.

It is awesome that you have raised the "unfair" term again.I do not think
it is fair to have EC who attend meetings without plans and strategies to
enhance the outreach and active participation of NCUC at the meeting.

As the chair I do not have a choice if you have been observing and
following the meetings you would have seen that it is my role to make sure
the agenda is set, to attend various leadership meetings. In the past two
meetings I have been funded by Article 19 and I had to have detailed plans
and reports to be at those meetings, Since I have chosen to make this a
personal attack on me as I decided to perform my duty as the EC chair. I
will come out and address some of your shortcomings... First as an EC you
were nowhere to be found during ICANN77 - despite the fact that there was a
significant participation from the APAC region there was no EC member from
the region to engage the attendees even virtually.Secondly, during the APAC
space meeting you were also not seen. I remembered that you

> You campaigned and got voted for the position, I did not recruit you for
the position, if you are unsure of what to do , there are other attendees
from the region who have been interested in supporting the community and
participating in our face to face meetings. So I will encourage you to
review the NCUC mandate and your candidate statement during the election to
fulfill your commitment to the constituency.
Secondly, I do not agree that a plan can be a basis for selecting who gets

> You are free to disagree, but travel slots are not automatic, it is based
on the plans each ECs have, if ECs will not show up and participate
actively - we will give the slots to community members who are engaging. At
ICANN77 - community members asked repeatedly to see ECs, Only Ken showed up
as NCUC members at various meetings outside the 2 NCUC meetings, How do we
keep our influence if our elected leaders are not up and about interacting
at the various meetings to hold up our flags both virtual and face to face.
I agree that we should pull up the roster that Olga did and abide by it (In
Fact that is what we should do). The only reason I had made the
recommendation I made was trying to accomodate you since you could not
make DC an otherwise rightful person for ICNN78 EC Slot is Olga because she
has not attended the last two meetings. I also hold myself accountable to
have skewed the travel slot rotation by always taking external travel
funding. I think it will be a good idea to stop it or refuse ECs from
getting my slot once I get an external funding so we can maintain the
roster.
And lastly, for the LAC EC selection of we were to try to fill in that

Finally, I know how many meetings or engagement that have been disregarded
because you (Mili) said you are not available. Should we check the EC
meeting attendance to review each person's attendance rate? All of these
issues you are bringing up, were on the agenda of the cancelled meeting
proceeding ICANN77. Can we review why that meeting did not hold and what
happened to items on the agenda.We need not wait for ICANN78 to
straighten up everything since we are all engaging on this list now.
If this is the way we want to keep going back and forth with each other,
fair enough This is distracting and exhausting.
Kindly submit your membership engagement strategy and plan for ICANN78 as
requested, even if it is a draft/ .
Regards,
Benjamin
