Thanks to the people from the 6 chapters who have supported the idea of the
Chapter News Site:
- ISOC Puerto Rico
- ISOC Bulgaria
- ISOC Serbia
- ISOC Belgium - Wallonia
- ISOC Tunisia
- ISOC France

We are currently putting together the team of chapter people who will manage
the site. We need people to do administrative work and to manage content.

At this stage, you can provide support for the project in two non-exclusive
forms :
  1. support the idea (just say so on this list),
  2. provide contacts who can help with the site's administration.

Thanks in advance,


- Luc Faubert
ISOC Québec

> WELCOME TO THE ISOC CHAPTERS WIKI
> 
> Welcome to the pilot ISOC Chapters News Site.
> 
> The site's objective is to build a showcase of all ISOC 
> Chapter intiatives by creating a unified and permanent 
> directory of all our local actions. This will be useful for 
> chapters, as each one will be able to see what the others are 
> doing, and it will also be a great tool to show the world the 
> impact that ISOC chapters are having throughout the world.
> 
> While we get the site up and running it will remain private 
> to chapters.
> After the initial rollout period, we will take the site 
> public and www.isoc.org will link to it.
> 
> The idea of creating something like this ISOC Chapters News 
> Site has been bounced around for a while in the chapter 
> community. Now that we have the tool, it is up to us to make 
> it work. For this, each active chapter must use the site to 
> post their activities. With time, the site will also become a 
> barometer of chapter activity.
> 
> What better way to let the world know what local chapters are 
> doing to make "The Internet for all"?
> 
> 
> POSTING RULES
> 
> 1. Posts submitted to this site must be news about chapters 
> (announcements of coming events, completed or current 
> projects). Please keep in mind that although the site is 
> presently private to chapters, the aim is to rapidly hook it 
> up to ISOC's public site so it can be viewed by all, so posts 
> should be written with a very broad readership in mind.
> 
> 2. Multilingual posts are encouraged. You are encouraged to 
> post in your local language, keeping in mind that if you wish 
> to broaden your readership, an English version of posts 
> should also be produced.
> 
> 3. Posts should contain a description of events and projects 
> organized locally, as weel as the impacts/results of these 
> activities. You are thus encouraged to return to posts 
> consisting of announcements for future events to complete the 
> impacts/results section of your post.
> 
> [Additional instructions relating to TikiWiki will have to be 
> included before we go online.]
