you know as I do, that yes the page is out of date, and ISOC staff is
fixing this issue.<br>
<br>
When I came on the ISOC board 2 years ago, my first work/presentation
was to show ISOC HQ does not know its chapters. It has improved, we
have better participation on this list, but it is not where it should
be.<br>
<br>
Also, nothing sinister, but a lot of point of contacts at the time were
not good. I think Anne moved recently a few chapters back to Chapters
in formation as there is no leadership in these chapters.<br>
<br>
Also, I think the whole board of any chapter should be member of this
list to ensure continuity and redundancy.<br>

chapter A visiting city B of chapter C is that the person
travelling just has a look at the chapters in that location and
sends a small message informing about his visit. I think that every
chapter would have a warm welcome for anyone from another
chapter ... Why do we need to formalize every step we do on the
net ? A little message is very likely and keeps your privacy where
it needs to be.

The ISOC page that points to chapters is woefully out of date, and
folks are amazingly unresponsive. A year or so ago I sent an email to
every address on that page, and tried to open every web link pointed
to. I got a lot of bounces and very few replies, and a surprising
number of the web page domain names were no longer even registered. I
have been very forward in my attempts to visit chapters, and few give
me the courtesy of a reply.
