In particular, we must learn how to institutionalize CS inclusion. I certainly don't think we can boycott meetings--removing ourselves from the very spaces we need to increase our engagement. In this case, DiploFoundation was also invited to be an observer at the HLM. After serious discussion, we have decided it is important to have someone attend. If possible, (travel arrangements, etc.) Vlada Radunovic will attend (as an observer), and will report back to the IGC/CS. I am sharing this prematurely, in the interests of that same transparency, and to add detail/substance to Bill's point.<br>

For the third time Milton, I was invited as an “expert” advisor to “speak to” the group. I am NOT a member of the group. I am NOT the CS representative to the group. In fact, as far as I know, there are no representatives to the group. That’s what business was complaining about in Buenos Aires. The registries don’t have a representative. The registrars don’t have a representative. The intellectual property constituency doesn’t have a representative. The ISP constituency doesn’t have a representative. And so on. I have no idea how they may be dealing with that now, but I’m guessing it’s not in the same manner.</div>
<div><br></div><div>More to the point, I’ve been told of others who were were similarly invited as speakers, at least three of whom are subscribed to these lists.

Subject: Re: [governance] Re: [bestbits] HLLM in LOndon - CS reps<br><br><br><br>Hi Adam,<br><br><br><br>Because it would be inappropriate I am deliberately not taking on a role of<br>coordinating back to various networks as that is what the various reps<br>
should do. But here is the reply from Fadi to Robin (copied to the reps<br>earlier).<br><br><br><br>Hello Robin,<br><br><br><br>I hope you had a good thanksgiving holiday. I took several days off and<br>regained a lot of energy after our busy week in Buenos Aires. I just got<br>
back and ready for the next phase of work.<br><br><br><br>As I noted below and in Buenos Aires, we were never in a position to grow<br>the panel any further. In BA, however, after the panel was announced, we<br>made a final commitment to add only one panelist from the cc community, and<br>
only one more from civil society -- understanding the need for broader<br>participation. Byron Holland from the cc community agreed to serve while in<br>Buenos Aires.<br><br><br><br>At this stage, and now that we have established this fifth panel as more<br>
independent (in partnership with two other organizations), I will need to<br>confer with our partners on your request, as well as with the Chairman of<br>the panel. I predict that they will be sensitive to diversity.<br>
<br>
<br><br>I cannot meet with the chairman until next week on Wednesday. I will keep<br>you posted. It may be a little late for London but rest assured that Frank<br>La Rue, Lynn St. Amour, and myself will have our communities interests very<br>
vigilantly on top of our agendas.<br><br><br><br>Fadi<br><br><br><br>-----Original Message-----<br><br>From: Adam Peake<br><br>Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2013 10:03 PM<br><br>To: Ian Peter<br><br>Cc:<span> </span><a href="mailto:governance@lists.igcaucus.org" style="color:purple;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">governance@lists.igcaucus.org</a><span> </span>;<span> </span><a href="mailto:bestbits@lists.bestbits.net" style="color:purple;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">bestbits@lists.bestbits.net</a><br>
