<p>It may be (as i was informed in my case) that certain Chapter
Officer roles on Fonteva have expired. Strange though -- when the
new AMS went live, i did check Fonteva out (and, as always, paid
particular attention to the Chapter Officer roles and expiry
dates). Then there was a ChAC call earlier this year, and i
checked everything again, following the emailed meeting notice's
advice to check ChAC reps. Well, however Fonteva expires Chapter
Officer roles, now we know that Fonteva does not send-out email
warnings of soon-to-expire Officer roles as the previous AMS did.</p>
<p>Then there's the case of Amrita who is on the ChAC rep list but
did not receive a ballot.</p>
<p>Given the problems with Fonteva, i would recommend that this ChAC
vote/consensus be re-done (there is a precedent for this, at that
time even after results were in), after Chapters have been
reminded to check their Officer roles in the AMS and confirming
that the Chapters' ChAC representatives are registered on the AMS.
Else, as a missing vote counts as a "no", the missing votes would
skew this "consensus" and provide an erroneous/misleading result.</p>
<p>Waiting for corrections to our Chapter's Officer roles/list,<br>

Hello all!<br>
<br>
The survey was indeed sent via SurveyMonkey to all current
ChAC representatives (see list here:
<a
href="https://www.internetsociety.org/chapters/chapters-advisory-council/list-of-representatives/"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">
https://www.internetsociety.org/chapters/chapters-advisory-council/list-of-representatives/</a> -
if your chapter is not on this list, it means your chapter
does not currently have a ChAC representative listed in the
Community Portal (AMS) - this is one of the officer roles
there)
<div><br>
ChAC representatives, please search your mailbox for an
email from <a href="mailto:member@surveymonkeyuser.com"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">member@surveymonkeyuser.com</a> (<a
href="mailto:rejman@isoc.org" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">rejman@isoc.org</a> via
SurveyMonkey). <br>
<br>
If you cannot find your ballot, please check if your
chapter has a ChAC representative listed and then reach
out to <a href="mailto:chapter-support@isoc.org"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">chapter-support@isoc.org</a> so
we can work with you to ensure your Chapter’s ChAC
representative has the ballot. </div>

receive the ballot. <br>

I recommend that the ChAC-SC group take proactive
steps to ensure all members have received their
ballots. At a minimum, they should promptly address
any chapters reporting that they have not received

This is an important voting ballot. It is awkwardly
called a "consensus call" but in fact it is a VOTE
which will determine whether there is support from
Chapters for two proposals from Internet Society
Puerto Rico Chapter:<br>
<br>
1. To open the Chapter Delegates Mailing List to
Observers<br>
2. To ask the Internet Society Board to resume
funding for ISOC.LIVE<br>
<br>
Ask them to FIND THAT BALLOT IN THEIR EMAIL AND
VOTE!<br>
<br>
The deadline for answering this poll will be by end
of day 1 July 2024.<br>
<br>
1. The first proposal is that the Chapter Delegate
email list (<a
href="https://elists.isoc.org/mailman/private/chapter-delegates/"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://elists.isoc.org/mailman/private/chapter-delegates/</a>) should be
opened to chapter members as observers (view only –
not allowed to post) to enhance transparency
and understanding of ongoing discussions concerning
Internet Society chapters.<br>
<br>
The summary and presentation (3 pages) on the issue
of opening the chapter delegate mailing list to
chapter members as observers can be found here: <a
href="https://app.box.com/file/1529389295278"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://app.box.com/file/1529389295278</a><br>
<br>
<br>
2. The second proposal is that Internet Society
funding for the ISOC LIVE video services
and archiving services should be reinstated, and
that Internet Society should financially support
ISOC LIVE on an ongoing basis.<br>
<br>
The summary and presentation (4 pages) on the issue
of funding support for ISOC LIVE can be found here: <a

<br>
I am not going to comment on the first poll as there
are views for/against opening Chapter Delegates
mailing list.<br>
<br>
<br>
On the other hand, the second vote about ISOC.LIVE
is one where I have very strong views. <br>
<br>
As you know from some of the updated emails which
Joly has sent to the Chapter Delegates mailing list,
his service costs in the region of $64 000 per annum
and currently Dr. Vint Cerf is funding it out of his
own pocket (thank you!) until August 2024. Past that
date we do not know what will happen. It is
therefore very important that we, as Chapters, ask
for the Internet Society Board of Trustees to bring
back the funding for this excellent resource which
many Chapters have benefited from - and your
chapter can benefit directly too! The discussion is
not about "live" and "recorded" or whatever ISOC is
trying to make you believe. It is about having a
channel that has high production value, with
captions, titles, names of speakers, sound and video
enhancement, a full description, as well as
publicity for your event on many external mailing
lists, raising the profile of your chapter
and increasing the number of viewers for your
content. Joly brings 40 years of experience in that
field - he is no amateur and the productions speak
for themselves.<br>
Year ago, this was promoted by ISOC - in fact there
was even talk of some video equipment to be shared
with Chapters so they could stream their event with
better quality picture etc. But in recent years, the
Chapters have seen all of this taken away from them
and replaced with... nothing but bureaucracy to stop
them from utilising the resource. <br>
<br>

<br>
All done by one person working with the Internet
Society Chapters.<br>
<br>
A bargain at $64K all included. But you might ask -
"I thought ISOC does not have the money?"<br>
The Internet Society is receiving $30M per annum
from PIR.<br>
The Internet Society foundation is receiving $30M
per annum from PIR too.<br>
And you're telling me there is no funding for a sum
that constitutes 0.21% of that $30M budget?<br>
0.1% of the total budget Internet Society +
Internet Society Foundation?<br>
<br>
Think about it and vote YES to ask the Board
to reinstate funding for ISOC.LIVE<br>
<br>
And vote - because if you don't, it's like voting
no. ISOC.LIVE will no longer be funded and you'll
only have yourselves to blame for losing the
opportunity to showcase your Chapter's activities.<br>
