[Chapter-delegates] INET meetings - Global INET 2011 and beyond

[Veni Markovski]

(topic changed)
Hi.

I'd encourage again to start thinking more strategically (which 
doesn't mean we have to stop the discussion about possible smaller 
meetings), and see if the Chapters can come with a proposal to 
ISOC-Reston to start anual Global INET meetings, to replace the IGF.
We have to be ready by mid 2009 with our proposal to start these 
meetings from 2011. The last IGF is 2010, but they can be continued 
as long as they want (they = UN, mainly). So, if we want ISOC to 
become the most relevant organization in the Internet governance 
discussions, the best way to do so is to start thinking how to use 
the .org money for something really big, and in the public interest.

I'd like to poll the chapters for volunteers with whom we can form a 
little mailing list, and discuss these issues there. I think no more 
than 3-5 people would do the job to come to the chapters with a sound 
proposal.

Are there volunteers?

Best,
Veni
