[Chapter-delegates] Fwd: [ISOC-ZA.announce] INET Cape Town 2010 - Monday, May 24

Thu May 13 06:33:20 PDT 2010

Usualmente los capitulos de ISOC trabajamos del mismo modo. No nos
concentramos solamente en las cuestiones de ingenieria y somos actores
convocantes en numerosas actividades que se desarrollan con gran exito en
nuestras areas de competencia. Creo que implementar un sistema de
compartimiento de experiencias podria resultar beneficioso para la comunidad
ISOC.

Buen paso para ISOC Mx y nos congratulamos de eso desde Ecuador
