<pre wrap="">Every year
the PICISOC Board whose members live in 6 different countries, have to seek
funding from ISOC and other regional partners to attend our own regional
INET. Its embarrassing, but we have to do it in order to face our members
and listen to their issues and then try to do something about them. As you
say, we too are deadlocked through lack of funds. </pre>

No, what's embarrassing is that <b>you </b>have to ask every year
ISOC for the same goal. <br>
Why wouldn't ISOC say, "Gee, you have the same conditions, and they
are not changing. Let's have a program to support your face to face
meeting. Here's an endowment for that purpose". <br>
Then, if they don't give you funding, <b>that</b> will be
embarrassing;-)<br>
