[Sivasubramanian Muthusamy]

Hello Anne,

It is a very good idea.

bookings window opens on 2nd January and closes on the 23rd January 2009.
> Therefore, if you are confirmed to attend the ALS Summit and are interested
> to attend the Pilot one day ISOC Chapter Workshop, please email <
> chapter-support at isoc.org>. ISOC will cover the additional expenses
> incurred (one nights accommodation and meals) for those attending the
> summit.   You will need to amend your travel plans to arrive one day
> earlier.
>
> This event is experimental. It will be a pilot which will provide us with
> valuable feedback for planning for a larger all Chapter summit in the
> future.  Funding is limited. Not all Chapter delegates will be able to
> attend. However, some additional funding will be made available to sponsor
> the attendance of Chapter delegates from the LAC region under the travel
> fellowship scheme (details of how to apply will be available mid January
> 2009).  Equally if you have funding to attend the ICANN meeting and are
> confirmed to attend,  but  your Chapter is not an ALS, you may also be
> eligible under the travel fellowship scheme for some assistance with the
> extra costs incurred to attend the workshop.
> We will also investigate opportunities for remote participation.
>
> WORKSHOP TOPICS - PLANNING
>
> Whilst in Cairo, those interested to further discuss the idea of the
> workshop met to brainstorm possible topics for the one day meeting. The
> following suggestions for 2 parallel break out groups were proposed:
>
>        - Chapter capacity building strategies
>        - How to interact with government
>        - Funding:  lessons shared and how to write grant proposals
>        - Accessibility
>        - Promoting IPv6
> `
> (Thanks to Olivier Crepin-Leblond, Khaled Khoubaa and Patrick Vande Walle
> for the above suggestions).
>
> We are looking to establish a small committee of volunteers who are
> planning to attend ICANN Mexico to help with the planning and execution of
> the meeting.  In particular we are looking for people to lead the
> discussions in the above areas. If you are interested, please email  <
> chapter-support at isoc.org>.

> Best wishes for 2009,
