under which the new CEO will be engaged. The CEO Appointments Committee<br>
will be empowered to contract with such consultants, human resources<br>
firms, recruitment firms, advertising options and legal advisors to<br>
facilitate and complete the recruitment process.<br>
<br>
3. Welcome New ISOC Chapters: The Board warmly welcomed the new Estonia,<br>
Canada, and Russia Chapters, and the rejuvenated Egypt Chapter.<br>
<br>
4. IETF Discussion: Jari Arkko, IETF Chair, (via teleconference) provided<br>
a presentation on improving diversity of participation in the IETF. The<br>
Board discussed Jari's presentation and how ISOC and its members and<br>
Chapters could help in this area. Jari mentioned that the IETF is<br>
reviewing its processes and will let the Board know the outcome of this<br>
review. In addition, Chris Griffiths, IETF Trust Chair, (via<br>
teleconference) provided a presentation on the status and activities of<br>
the IETF Trust, and Bob Hinden, IAOC Chair, provided a presentation on the<br>
status and activities of the IAOC.<br>
<br>
5. Internet Hall of Fame: ISOC staff presented an update on the Internet<br>
Hall of Fame event in Istanbul in June. The Internet Hall of Fame received<br>
more than 170 nominations this year. The 2013 induction ceremony will be<br>
co-located with several other Internet Society events, including a<br>
Business Roundtable, Regional INET, and Chapter workshop to enlarge the<br>
event footprint and take advantage of planning and cost efficiencies.<br>
There will also be an Arab region meeting to review plans for the region.<br>
Staff is working to interest additional sponsors in the event. A global<br>
rotational schedule was presented to ensure the Internet Hall of Fame<br>
event is held in different regions each year. Next year, the event will<br>
be held in the Asia Pacific region.<br>
<br>
6. Policy Discussion (WCIT, WTPF): ISOC staff provided a post-WCIT and<br>
pre-WTPF update. There was discussion on the importance of<br>
multi-stakeholder governance to the Internet's success and the need to<br>
continue to reach out and open doors with technical and policy leaders to<br>
make progress. ISOC will continue its focused outreach efforts at briefing<br>
regulators, industry, and broader society, and will work with its<br>
community to encourage full engagement.<br>
<br>
7. By-Laws Working Group: ISOC staff presented the report and<br>
recommendations of the By-Laws working group. The Board thanked the<br>
working group and supported the recommendations with some revisions. The<br>
staff will produce a full revised version of the Board's recommended<br>
revisions of the by-laws for posting and community comment as soon as<br>
possible with the objective of ratification of the revised by-laws at the<br>
Board meeting in Berlin.<br>
<br>
8. Business Review: The Board reviewed the organization's Business Plan<br>
and upcoming key activities, including Google.org grants and the Deploy360<br>
programme, as well as numerous Financial items.<br>
<br>
9. Strategic Guidance: ISOC staff presented information on the Strategic<br>
Guidance of ISOC. The Board discussed the initiative and agreed, and asked<br>
staff to manage the implementation as part of the strategic and business<br>
planning process. Strategic Guidance will focus on advancing ISOC as a<br>
leader on Internet policy/governance, technology and development on a<br>
global, regional, and local basis. The Board confirmed that staff should<br>
engage in a future-looking strategic planning process on an ambitious<br>
schedule to provide strategic recommendations and options to the Board as<br>
part of a high-level business plan for discussion at the August Board<br>
meeting.<br>
<br>
10. Chapter workshop: During the Board and Senior Staff workshop in<br>
February, the Board re-affirmed that the Internet Society is a<br>
mission-driven organization, and addressed the strategic role of Chapters<br>
in the achievement of the ISOC mission. As a follow-up to this meeting,<br>
the Board agreed that Chapters are vital to advancing the mission,<br>
principles, and values of ISOC at the local and regional levels and they<br>
contribute to ensuring the organization is globally and locally engaged.<br>
The Board was sympathetic to requests by Chapters for support in their<br>
essential operations, and asked ISOC staff to prepare a full report to the<br>
Board on the current level of support that Chapters receive and key areas<br>
where assistance could be effective.<br>
<br>
The next Internet Society Board of Trustees meeting will be held via<br>
teleconference on 29 May, followed by a meeting held in Berlin, Germany<br>
3-4 August.<br>
