[chapter-delegates] one member = one vote

[Dean McCall]

I agree I mean even the wiki entry for isoc is in 6 languages which is one
more than the ISOC site?  At some point it must have been important enough
to someone to translate it so many times...why not just have a wiki on the
site that everyone builds and have links to the different languages on the
front of the site?  Maybe it's just me but ISOC has at its disposal a pretty
incredible group of translators that might be engaged for such a project.

After attend SXSW interactive this last week the same themes keep repeating
themselves...Blogging, Wiki, Social Software, Digital Convergence....I am
unaware of any of these being done currently minus the web conference
sessions that Gene and crew put on a week ago?

James,

The million dollar question: When I come to www.isoc.org, if I don't 
speak english, how do I find this page?

One more step and we will be there... ;)

Cheers

the destruction notice of the main character's house was clearly 
displayed in the basement of the city council building for all to see...
