[Chapter-delegates] Kind request to discuss your expectations with your Chapter's nominee to Chapters Workshop in Geneva

Thu Feb 2 20:30:41 PST 2012

Anne,

it is quite a surprise to find out that a program commitee for the Chapters workshop has not been established. Someone should have noticed how bad things are for the main program of the INET for, among other possible reasons, lack of a broad, participative, and inclusive program commitee.

I don't see many reasons why you could skip some serious inclusion of chapter representatives in this new, much more mission-constrained program committee, given the chance. 

Also I don't mean to pick on you personally as you have over the years been amazingly patient and supportive of the Chapters, even in the face of quite uncivil abuse from us. Rather, I'm hoping you can convey the need and start some expectation management **upwards** as well. 

Thanks for your frank response. Your openness and will to serve have done miracles on a myriad occasions; here's hoping for one more. 

Yours,

Alejandro Pisanty

hi Alejandro, All,

Yes absolutely!  We will of course make the committee known to
everyone as soon as we can.  The reason we have not done so yet, is
that we are a little bit behind our schedule, and so we have not yet
established it, but we are in the process of doing so. In the
meantime, we thought it would be better to get the survey out asap.

Apologies for any concern caused.

best wishes,

Anne
