[Chapter-delegates] US chapter list

[Christopher Wilkinson]

Good afternoon:

We obviously have no objection to the US Chapters having their own list. 
After all, ISOC-ECC has its own list. However I agree fully with Marcin 
Cieslak: since the FCC and the European Commission tend to consult, and 
sometimes clone each other, it would be very important for some of the 
European ISOC Chapters to be able to follow the US debate, particluarly 
about matters such as broadband, non-discrimination and IPR-related 
issues. I am very glad that the US list is open, and would propse to 
join it myself. I am sure that I will not be alone ...

Many thanks and regards to you all,

CW
