Dear Anne,

The review of the draft is on my agenda for the next 48 hours as I will 
be on the flight to Seoul. This is a good occasion to go through such 
documents. You'll receive some comments during my stay in Seoul.

Best regards,

>> Chapter Handbook Editorial Committee meeting
>> Wednesday 21 October 2009, UTC 20.00
>>
>> Attendees:
>> Hans Peter Dittler - ISOC Germany Chapter
>>
>> Wendy Rickard - Editor
>> Anne Lord - ISOC Staff
>> Dawit Bekele - ISOC Staff (joined later)
>
>> Apologies:
>> Jose Francisco Callo Romero - ISOC Peru Chapter - will send in comments
>> Joly McFie - ISOC New York Chapter - will send in comments
>> Sebastien Bachollet - will send in comments
>> Carlos Vera Quintana (sent comments)
>>
>>
>> Wendy opened the call and asked  Hans Peter for his feedback.
>>
>> 1. Reference to the "Paid/Registered member" on page 4 - needs more 
>> careful wording as could be misunderstood easily when translated.
>>
>> 2. Leadership models on page 4 - need to include references to the 
>> way chapters organise themselves. Need other examples away from the 
>> traditional/classical hierarchical approach.   The ISOC template for 
>> by-laws is traditional ->> may change in the upcoming policy 
>> discussions.  A collaborative approach to leadership or organisation 
>> of the chapter could be stressed more and we should provide different 
>> examples. (anne - to provide references to starfish & the spider for 
>> example)
>>
>> 4. AMS guidelines for running a chapter -> training materials. Hans 
>> Peter noted that we need key benefits outlined for chapter members. 
>>  (Anne to contact Lincoln for material, which could be added at a 
>> later date).
>>
>> 5. Social media - examples are fine but not complete. Wendy noted 
>> that this was still under-developed.  We need to know  more from 
>> Chapters about success stories and whether it is working well and 
>> how. Hans Peter commented that success depends on region and age of 
>> the members. "generation gap". One suggestion was to send email to 
>> chapter delegates to ask for feedback on success in using social 
>> media. (anne/wendy).  Dawit agreed this is important otherwise the 
>> younger members will be lost. Changing "fashions" needs to also be 
>> acknowledged. Suggestion to include a "mix".
>>
>> Drawback on social media section to be included:
>>
>> One thing to note is the confict with Privacy - this needs to be 
>> acknowledged. Try to find some details about 'recommendations' for 
>> use bearing in mind the Privacy issue.  Sphere-analysis - also asked 
>> about social media being used by Chapters. Anne to take a look at 
>> responses and send to Wendy.
>>
>> 6. Hans Peter suggested including a note about Privacy - re: keeping 
>> members data. What should a chapter do and not do - selling chapter 
>> data, membership lists etc.
>>
>> 7. Communicating with the media is often difficult for Chapters. 
>> Dawit had a  short tutorial on how to interact effectively with the 
>> media.. how to make sure they come to your event, or they cover it 
>> etc.  Action: dawit - will try to find some documents and send to us 
>> so as to be able to include this.
>>
>> 8. Dawit noted the use of hyperlinks to make it easier for the 
>> reader.  Wendy commented that we have not finalised on-line design yet.
>>
>> 9. Reference to partners : should also include more on the 
>> relationship of ISOC with the IETF which is not well understood and 
>> PIR. In 1.1 you could introduce the IETF. HPD can also help with 
>> wording in this area.
>>
>> 10. Dawit asked about incorporation: is it required or not. No - 
>> there are many reasons why this is difficult for chapters. almost 
>> impossible in Japan for example.
>>
>> 11. Dawit commented that it was important for chapters to have a 
>> flagship programme which gives them an "image".  Dawit to send bullet 
>> points of examples from some Chapters in the African region.
>>
>> Wendy closed the call by thanking Hans Peter and Dawit.
