[Chapter-delegates] Getting the ISOC message out to a broader public

[Sivasubramanian M]

Dear David Solomonoff

I saw the pictures of the event following the links that Joly posted
earlier, and took some of those amazing pictures to isocindiachennai.org

It is quite an impressive gathering, understandably organized at a very
short notice.

Congratulations.
