> You are warmly invited to join our next call on 9th December at UTC  
> 11.00 and 20.00 to discuss the establishment of Operating Principles  
> for ISOC Chapters and ISOC Global.  The discussion will address the  
> following topics:
>
> * Alignment (Chapter to Global; chapter leadership to membership)
> * Representation (Are leaders elected, (s)elected, self-appointed?)
> * Involvement (Are members engaged, apathetic, blocked out?)
> * Responsiveness (To Global; to members)
> * Civility/Openness (Are discussions respectful and open to  
> alternate views?)
> * Flexibility (Does the Chapter resist or respond positively to  
> change?)
> * Financial Soundness
> * Overall Effectiveness
>
> These will eventually become an integral part of the Affiliation  
> agreement.  The conversation will draw upon the high level vision  
> draft document prepared by the Sphere labels group earlier this year:
>
> "The Principles of Affiliation - A shared vision" document which can  
> be found at:
> http://wiki.chapters.isoc.org/tiki-index.php?page=Draft+%26quot%3BPrinciples+of+Affiliation+document+v1.1+-+A+shared+vision%26quot%3B&bl=y 
> .
>
> Please let us know at chapter-support at isoc.org if you are able to  
> join the call. If you are not able to, please consider asking  
> another member of the Chapter to join instead. We are looking to  
> have as much diversity of the Chapters reflected in the attendance  
> of those on the call.
>
> We look forward to talking with you!
