Estimado Carlos, sin embargo todos o el unico criterio a favor de un nuevo capitulo que expones es precisamente geografico basado en distancias y extensiones, ciudades y paises.. ESto en caso de ameritar se resuelve con secciones no con mas capitulos... 

A nosotros nos parece razonable el analisis de la demanda real de la region, potencialidades de trabajo, recursos para operacion, voluntarios con que se cuente, proyectos propuestos, presupuestos, etc, que muestren una DIFERENCIACION REAL con el capitulo existente..y sostenibilidad para el futuro, pues la experiencia nos demuestra que la colaboracion propositiva es de lejos mejor que la competencia discursiva.

Hello all,

Perhaps I am too new to ISOC, but I don't think we can reject an application based solely on territorial overlap.

While I agree that perhaps if both communities (the current chapter and the proposed one) collaborated instead of forming a new chapter they could perhaps achieve better results in the long run, but in the end I don't believe that ISOC can force them to do so.

Besides, Colombia is big country and Bogota is a large city. Traveling within the country can involve plane trips or long road ones. There can be reasons for creating city-wide chapters besides country-wide ones.

Best regards

No estoy de acuerdo con soportar esta aplicacion

En ISOC Ecuador, creemos firmemente que deben realizarse esfuerzos importantes para sustentar el trabajo de los capitulos existentes y que solicitudes de este tipo, cuando ISOC Colombia esta empezando a dar sus frutos, solo desalentara a sus actores y dispersara esfuerzos.

ISOC debe mantener una politica firme de soporte al trabajo de los capitulos que bastante esfuerzo y trabajo exige crearlos y mantenerlos. Cuando se intenten crear nuevos capitulos donde ya existen otros, estos deben empezar al menos sobre la base de trayectoria del capitulo existente, sus ejecutorias y tiempo trabajado. Adicionalmente no se debe considerar solamente la solicitud de un nuevo capitulo sino la necesidad del "mercado" para el mismo y si existen fallas en el trabajo del capitulo existente para que la creacion de un nuevo capitulo en circunscripciones territoriales con limitaciones economicas y de ejecutorias, resulte en beneficio de la comunidad y no en detrimento de aquella.

Dear Colleagues,

The following application for a Chapter in Bogota, Colombia, has been received. It is being sent to this list for peer comment and review. Please note that the Chapter is not yet formed and has not officially
been recognised by ISOC.

FYI, we have met some of the applicants in the past year at various meetings and have encouraged the members to join the existing Colombian Chapter on several occasions. However, they have decided to form a Chapter in Bogota, and their ideas are outlined in the application below.

If there are people on this list that know the individuals proposing to
establish the Chapter, feedback is especially welcome.

The period allowed for comments is two weeks and the deadline is December 15, 2010.

Please do not hesitate to contact me on or off list.

Best regards,

 Sabrina Wilmot

RE: Application of Colombian Chapter of the Internet Society - ISOC - COLOMBIA

We are writing in behalf of all the people interested in creating the Bogotá-Colombia chapter and be one of the official chapters of ISOC.

In the ISOC Business plan 2010-2012, the next 24 months will be crucial for the future of this great organization, and the "lift the game" strategy to reduce semi active chapters will rejuvenate the presence of ISOC in the world, for that reason we want to be an official chapter because we are focused in be the most active chapter in Latin America and further in the world.

We know the importance of ISOC in the world, and for that reason, we have been preparing the creation of the chapter for many months in order to have the entire crucial axis in place. We have made 6 preparations meetings by one of our supporting organizations (enREDo- Red Internacional de Diseño through its Club Networking TIC), gathering more than 75 people and designing strategies to maintain the connected with ISOC Bogota-Colombia.

Our communication strategy has been successful, and with the creation of a site: http://colombia.isoc.pro/ as part of an effort of transparence in all the processes, so each member and person interested can consult the history of the creation of the chapter.

Another strategy has been the mailing list (now with 3.000 people) receiving the updates of this great process.

Many of our members, such as Patricia Cespedes (an IEFT scholar and member of ISOC for many years) are supporting the chapter creation from their actual location (in this case Canada).

We look forward to receive a positive and fast answer of this great effort we are engaged.

Respectfully submitted,
Maricela Londoño C.
