This URL is obsolete (dead more than 10 years ago).

I have checked and edited at portal.isoc.org and
<br>
the website information of Japan chapter is now

but this URL modification has no effect at

I take this mail from the ISOC Japan Chapter to comment - I could
have taken also several others that relate to the same issue: lack
of coordinated attention at the ISOC headquarters.<br>
<br>
This important, but not structured or
coordinated discussion reminds me that many months ago we had a
similar round on the Chapters list, even with suggestions that ISOC
might decide to assist this process by agreeing to use an issue
tracing platform. Some such had been in use for some time, but ISOC
staff
did not provide – unless I missed it – a clear guidance which
instrument will be used consistently, that means of course: Which
instrument would
be regularly read by ISOC staff and get responses, so that all
involved and all interested could get easy access to see the status
of ongoing issues getting attention.
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">I remember the following platforms
were
used at certain times for tracking issues:</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> <a
href="https://mantis.tools.isoc.org/">https://mantis.tools.isoc.org</a></p>
Used sometimes for AMS issues.
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> <a
href="https://github.com/InternetSociety/isoc-wp/">https://github.com/InternetSociety/isoc-wp/</a></p>
Used for WP development issues.
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">And, somewhat differently, there was
Elena Zvarici’s<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"><b>Chapters Collaboration Platform</b><span
style="text-decoration: none">
</span>
</p>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.anuntul.eu/">http://www.anuntul.eu/</a>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Also Christine Saegesser Baethge and
Anne Lord had been starting to use it – but then the initiative
did
not seem to get any more interest and attention from ISOC staff.
The platform was
structured with the following sections:</p>
<h3 class="western">Discussion Groups</h3>
<ul>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"><a
href="http://www.anuntul.eu/wordpress/groups/spirit-of-unity/">Geneva
Workshop Participants</a><br>
<a
href="http://www.anuntul.eu/wordpress/groups/european-chapters-coordination/">Spirit
of Unity</a><br>
<a href="http://www.anuntul.eu/wordpress/groups/ipv6-adoption/">European
Chapters Coordination</a><br>
<a href="http://www.anuntul.eu/wordpress/groups/ipv6-adoption/">IPv6</a></p>
</ul>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">This collaborative effort, where
specific concerns had a place for common engagement, is now almost
dead.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">I would strongly appeal for a new
effort to agree and then to use such platforms, and I think <b>a
common
issue tracking system</b> should get high priority attention.
Mantis
seemed to work fine. I sincerely hope that we will soon all know
that
there is a simple issue tracking system in use by ISOC, which gets
appropriate attention by ISOC staff.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">And the Map of Chapters concerns -
quite a lot of different ones have been raised so far - could then
get a common place, and we all could see how the issues raised are
being discussed and move towards clarifications.<br>
