[Chapter-delegates] Nov. 21 chapter-delegates list cutoff -- moving WSIS discussion to another list?

[Gene Gaines]

This, the chapter-delegates at elists.isoc.org list has become the
primary vehicle for ISOC chapter discussion.

Regrettably, that leaves out many ISOC members, including many
people who their chapter officers have not elected to invite to
join the chapter-delegates list.

With the new membership system starting up (see email from
Nelson Sanchez below) it is likely that a number of people will
be dropped from the chapter-delegates list. Not good.

I propose that all discussion not relating to chapter officers
be moved from this list to the
isoc-members-discuss at elists.isoc.org or
memberpubpol at elists.isoc.org list.

WSIS and internet governance issues are such a fundamental part
of ISOC that I propose those discussions live on the
isoc-members-discuss list.

What do others think?  Can we reach an IETF-Tao consensus?
