Hi Alejandro,

Good questions, our participation will be led by the head of our North  
American Bureau - Sally Wentworth.  Sally will of course work with  
Members and Chapters, as well as our Global Policy efforts and rely as  
we all do on long-established principles and/or positions.  Having the  
NA Bureau lead our participation should ensure ISOC HQ is seen as  
different to ISOC's North American Bureau - just as the other Bureaus  
are.  And, admittedly, it will take some time for our new model to  
settle in a bit, but we are well on our way.

With respect to coordination across differing viewpoints and/or online  
mediums/tools, shouldn't we use the processes developed in the Sphere  
Consult to develop ISOC's talking points (and again alot of this  
already exists).  I'm sure there are things we can learn from our  
Hadopi WG effort as well.  Then, we can either ensure the appropriate  
lists are monitored and responses sent in following ISOC's agreed  
position -- and if any area/point requires more debate, we kick off  
the Sphere Consult process again.    All this applies to responses  
that go in under an ISOC related submission.  We are of course, all  
free to comment as individuals, we simply need to make sure we are  
clear which hat we are wearing.

Hope I understood your point correctly and that this helps.

Best,
Lynn
