[Chapter-delegates] How can ISOC chapters help in the development of IP-based networks?

[Alejandro Pisanty]

Veni,

this "should" is happening, haven't you noticed? we have managed to get 
ISOC position papers on issues like ACTA, Network Neutrality, Internet 
Governance, and a number of others. Many of them have been finished in 
consultation with the chapters and other ISOC stakeholders. Many have 
started from a detected need among chapters, be there an explicit request 
here or a more silent one from one of us.

Where do we feel the need for more among the chapters? We can't ask for 
this in abstract alone.

And, we on our chapters side should also pick up part of the burden, at 
least through expressing clear questions that the papers must answer, 
providing local or regional context, etc., don't you think?

Many of us do, don't we? Look at the archives of this list. Haven't some 
of you used them to point at so that others can read what we say, as 
orientation and information?

Yours,

Alejandro Pisanty
