[Chapter-delegates] Announcing New Programmes to support Chapter Development in 2009

[Alejandro Pisanty]

Dear Anne,

though belated, my responnse to this announcement is greatly enthusiastic.

Having just had ISOC Mexico's Symposium, attracting the local community a 
few days before the ICANN meeting and the ISOC chapters meeting here, 
without any direct expense by ISOC Mexico, I can only look forward to the 
effect the program for funding chapter events will have.

I hope it is available soon!

Alejandro Pisanty
