    <p>Hi Hank and others</p>
    <div>What has been said in yesterday's full ChAC call is that those
      who submitted contributions in the first round of the consultation
      were not asked to consent to having their input shared more
      broadly. This is why we (ChAC Steering Committee and ISOC staff)
      cannot share the detailed inputs received with everyone. </div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div>However, anyone who wishes to share on this list what they
      submitted to the first round of consultation is of course entirely
      free to do so. The ChAC SC will try to keep track of new feedback
      submitted across this channel, although this may be difficult if
      too many new ideas arise. </div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div>In any case, if there’s new feedback we encourage people to
      submit that through the next round of consultations - which will
      include additional formats (beyond the form) for those who feel
      more comfortable with contributing that way. </div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div>In addition, as also mentioned yesterday during the ChAC call,
      the next round of feedback will allow people to check a box if
      they wish to have their feedback shared more broadly. </div>
    <div><br>
    </div>
    <div>
      A final note: all ChAC representatives are also subscribed to this
      chapter-delegates list, so there’s nothing that hinders them from
      posting to this list. 
    </div>
    <p>Best,</p>

          Hi, <br>
          <br>
          I submitted 3 submissions back on Aug 5 as I assume many other
          ChAC reps have done. <br>
