[Chapter-delegates] ISOC 2008 Chapter Review - Your feedback?

[Khaled KOUBAA]

Hi Anne,
The call for contribution was for contribution to the 2008 Annual Report.
Again, we are against the idea of a separate "Chapter Review" report. It 
was really a very good decision and we really need it as chapter to 
develop our local outreach.
We prefer to be more involved in developing such document as it concern 
us directly, and not be just informed that the report wen out.
Regarding pictures : My comment was specifically about the first page 
where we have 2 big pictures showing ISOC IGF Ambassadors that are not 
representing any Chapters. I was preferring have to show more 
people/events/building related to the work of Chapters. Thus, I am sure 
that if we have been consulted for that we may provide you with more 
media content.
Again with the translation : I would run a quick poll to our colleagues 
: Who really will use this "English" version at his local level ?
Khaled
