<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span
style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>Dear Chapter Leaders</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span
style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>As Chapter representatives on the
Bylaws Revision Committee that worked to provide for a Chapter Advisory
Committee, we would like to issue a formal call to create a Task Force to draft
a proposal for a CAC to present to the Board of Trustees for approval.
The revised Bylaws require that there be a petition from the Chapters to
institute the CAC, as was the case with the Organizational Advisory Council.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span
style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>The purposes of the CAC, among others,
would be to represent the interests of the Chapters and to provide an
institutional structure for the future growth of the role of the Chapters in
the life of the Internet Society. The Council would also be the body of
peers to which issues concerning Chapters could be directed. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span
style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>The Task Force will need to be small
enough to work well, but broad enough and operated in a transparent fashion to
ensure that a workable, effective, democratic, and representative Council will
be the end result of our efforts.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span
style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>Our belief is that the Task Force
must be Chapter-leader driven, but at the same time we will need to work with
staff to insure that funding and other necessary support will be forthcoming.
Joyce Dogniez has volunteered to coordinate with the Task Force in providing
logistics. Ted Mooney and other members of staff dedicated to Chapter support
have indicated they welcome the creation of the Council.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span
style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>Our call is for volunteers willing
to work as part of the Task Force and are able and ready to spend enough of
their time and energy over the next four to five months to create a solid
proposal for a Chapter Advisory Council. Our goal should be to have the
proposal ready for consideration at the Board Meeting in April 2014.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
