<div>In my opinion, chapter from developing countries must work on getting more resources in order to allow them to attend to some meetings. We need to have more activities, more visibilities, more members, etc...</div>
<div>This could be one of subject for next chapter meeting or forum. Remote participation could also help.</div>

<div class="Ih2E3d">> 2- An event that would gather IETF, ICANN, NGSO (you can add or<br>> delete the one you like) and would cover broadly all topics of ISOC<br>> concern.<br><br></div>If you want to consider that, may I suggest you review http://<br>
<a href="http://icann.org/general/calendar/" target="_blank">icann.org/general/calendar/</a> and <a href="http://www.ietf.org/meetings/0mtg-" target="_blank">http://www.ietf.org/meetings/0mtg-</a><br>sites.txt. 2008 ISOC Board Meetings are on the weekends following the<br>
March and November IETF meetings and the June ICANN meeting; the<br>ideal thing for those in the other meeting you tag onto would be to<br>have it during the week immediately following the board meeting in<br>the place that the board meeting happens. That would allow the other<br>
meeting to run (which is generally a very busy meeting), the board<br>meeting, and then INET.<br><br>The 8 points you made are good ones. The key point, a ninth one, is<br>that the content must be such that ISOC folks will in fact attend. I<br>
would suggest that each chapter ask and answer two questions:<br>(1) what content will it supply that will be of value to other chapters?<br>(2) what content would it like to see provided from other sources?<br><br>"other sources" can be whoever you like - IETF, ICANN, ISOC<br>
Organizational members, other chapters, etc. Someone has to convince<br>them to agree, of course, but you can provide a wish list.<br><br>An organizing theme would be a good thing, so idnetifying interesting<br>themes would also be of value.<br>
<br>If you want, you could open an "INET" wiki page on the chapter wiki<br>and start putting thoughts together.<br>
