Chapters vs Orgs. Voting separately. Chapters for 1, orgs for 2. Making 3 not 4 elected.

With my reporter hat on, I'd welcome perspective, on or off-list, on or off record, about what the election results imply. I'm doing a brief item for CommsDay and may also write more for my own site. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">
<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"> Internally to ISOC, I'd welcome thoughts on what the board mebers should seek in the choice of the new ISOC chief. My personal take is that professional activity fighting for Internet freedom must be part of the resume of anyone hired. I think a deep understanding of the needs of the developing world and the poor is also crucial, wherever they may have been born. Those who have watched the work of ISOC the last few years know why I raise those issues and welcome comments for the list. </div>

<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">That Narelle Clark, the President of the Australia Chapter, pulled ahead.
