[Chapter-delegates] Fwd: Invitation to join Sphere Labels group (draft Affiliation Agreement discussion).

[Anne Lord]

Dear Colleagues,

I have previously posted to this list (see below) information and an  
invitation to contribute to the ongoing work in the Sphere Labels  
group. The group is helping to define a minimum set of expectations  
about what it means to be an Internet Society Chapter, which are  
captured in a draft Affiliation Agreement. This is one piece of the  
work to revise the Chapter Policies and Procedures.

The draft Agreement has had review and feedback from members of the  
Sphere Labels discussion list, the Chapter Taskforce, the Lawyers and  
the ISOC Executive team.  All the project information (version 2 of  
the draft , a summary of feedback,  responses from the Taskforce and  
Lawyers and the next steps are available at http://wiki.chapters.isoc.org/tiki-index.php?page=Sphere+Project

We would be very happy if you would like to comment on the revised  
draft Affiliation Agreement. To do so, please join the conversation on  
the sphere labels  mailing list. To join the list, simply send email  
to <chapter-support at isoc.org> or visit https://elists.isoc.org/mailman/listinfo/sphere-labels 
. The deadline for comments is 16th September.

Sincere thanks to everyone who has contributed to this work so far.

Kind regards,

Anne (on behalf of the Chapter Taskforce).
