>>   September 9th:  UTC 11:30 and the second at UTC 20:00
>>
>> This is a friendly reminder for all who have not yet had the chance to 
>> reply to us in order to join the demonstration. Experiencing the Beta 
>> version is an important step for the Chapters and ISOC in the process of 
>> implementing the new Association Management System (AMS) and should not 
>> be missed. Your feedback is very valuable to us.
>>
>> You can still sign up to be amongst the privileged seeing this new system 
>> on September 9th by replying to this email (indicating which session is 
>> best for you). You will then receive a Webex invitation for the

>> *Dear Chapter Delegates, Chapter Steering Committee, and AMS PoCs:*
>>
>> The “alpha version” of the new ISOC Chapter portal was demonstrated July
>> 21st to members of the Chapter Steering Committee (CSC ), and all those
>> who had previously indicated an interest in the portal.  Thanks once
>> again to everyone who provided feedback during and after that session.
>>
>>  We have now incorporated many changes suggested, and would like to
>> extend an invitation to the CSC, the AMS Point of Contacts, and to
>> members of the Chapter delegates mailing list to review the Beta version
>> of the portal.
>>
>> This Beta version of the portal will have many enhancements, several
>> driven directly by the feedback from the last session, including:
>>
>>  1)  Better look and feel overall (including updated terminology to more
>> closely match ISOC processes)
>>
>>  2)  Sign-up for Chapter membership more prominent earlier in the
>> sign-up workflow
>>
>>  3)  More member types available in the system
>>
>>  4)  Ability for zero-value memberships to automatically renew
>>
>> In order to accommodate the greatest number of participants globally,
>> this time around we will be hosting two separate sessions:
>>
>> *^*September 9th:  UTC 11:30 *and the second at UTC 20:00    *
>>
>> *With these two scheduled demos we are hoping that everyone will have
>> the opportunity to choose a suitable time.*
>>
>> *About the Chapter Portal*
>>
>> ISOC is still in the process of implementing a new Association
>> Management System  (AMS). The software package called Aptify will be the
>> central data holding and management platform for all data on ISOC
>> Chapters, their members, ISOC individual members, organizational
>> members, and events.
>>
>> The ISOC Chapter Portal will be the interface through which chapters
>> will interact with the new system.  The portal to be demonstrated on
>> September 9th is still the "Phase II" Chapter portal - it is intended as
>> a replacement for the Q/GoMembers portal currently deployed, but it is
>> NOT the open-source platform portal that is the ultimate goal for the
>> long-term AMS project. (The Phase III open-source version will replace
>> the Phase II version in 2010.)  Therefore, there may be limits to what
>> feedback & requirements gathered from this session can be incorporated
>> into this portal to be launched on October 15th.
>>
>> As before, please reply to this email if you are interested (and which
>> session is best for you), and I will send out a Webex invitation to each
>> participant.  Webex is screen-sharing software that supports most
>> browsers & operating systems, including many open-source:
>>  http://support.webex.com/support/system-requirements.html .  We will
>> also provide local toll-free voice.conference numbers to most countries
>> for this session, via our ISOC conferencing service.
>>
>> Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you --
