HI All,<br>
<br>
Veni suggested I post this info to the list of how to see the forum.
I also could not find it despite searching on Connect. Finally Olga
provided the link but as Hans says unless you ae part of that group
you can not see any of the discussions. However after searching the
site I found out how to get on. After you log on to Connect, look
for your Inbox and messages. In your Inbox you will find a message
from Hans there. Hans sent a link to join the discussion. In my
version the link was not clickable so you need to copy the link from
there and then you get a box to subscribe to it. Once you do that
then you should be subscribed to the site and able to get the
questions and answers emailed to you and also to see them on the
site. This was an extremely complicated, frustrating, and not user
friendly way of doing something which should have been simple ans
easy<br>
<br>
Hope this helps people navigate<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Judith<br>

I am surprised that the voting chapter delegates are not
subscribed automatically, but we have to email <a
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="mailto:elections@isoc.org"><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:elections@isoc.org">elections@isoc.org</a></a> (I've
BCC:ed them). <br>
I logged in - no such forum. Now they will probably send me
something, which I have to click, and then confirm, in order to
sign up. Extremely user-unfriendly.<br>
<br>
I've setup to receive everything by email, but obviously I am
not getting the candidates' discussions. If I were a candidate,
I would be worried that my message doesn't get to the people,
who vote for me. <br>
