but then, ISOC is a non-profit, which was created in order to be
the home of the IETF; later it educated the Internet pioneers in
many countries. And chapters were created. To be a chapter,
usually is a pain, but we do our job - as much as we can, which is
actually <b>not </b>to be a chapter, but to be the leader in
making sure the Internet is free and open, and the state does not
interfere in it. At least, that's in Bulgaria. Plus many other
things, like adapting Creative Commons in Bulgarian, etc.<br>
I think it is fair to say that ISOC supports the multistakeholder
model, but sometimes it is not happy with the way the chapters
behave;-) <br>
But, one important item - all the people we as a chapter have
worked with at ISOC, are awesome.<br>
