[chapter-delegates] FW: Nomination of Veni Markowski

[Carlos Vera Q]

We at ISOC Ecuador support also the nomination of Veni.

If Veni finally decide to run again, we would like to suggest a minimun work 
agenda for chapters with some goals and objectives for this period.

This should include:

1. An inside ISOC Chapter work: Building strong ISOC chapters network with 
thematic and specialized focus areas by groups of chapters.

  1.1 Internet Governance and ISOC Chapters Network Governance
  1.2 WSIS and ISOC Chapters
  1.3 Digital Inclusion (Integral inclusion)

2. PIR and .org at cc domain level treatment: How to work with .org.xx at a 
country level with ISOC Chapters

3. Chapters participation on INET.
