Hi Ann, Ed et all,

I'd like to remember the possibility of setting up "local hubs" for remote
Chapter participation on the INET event.
As ISOC have and use the WEBEX platform, one possibility is to set up (in
each Chapter that want's to and may do it) a meeting-room with a big screen
and a camera... also, it might be a Chapter designated moderator in each Hub
and an ISOC designated one locally at the INET event so as to coordinate
questions, answers and remote participation in general.

Regards,
Nicolas

hi Ed, All,

Thank you for your email.  Member-to-member communication is where we need
to be -  that is clear. We have been slower than we should be on this and we
need to catch up. But to do so, we need your help.

So, I really appreciate the work done by you and Elena to set up this
platform. In the spirit of evaluating and testing out this platform, what do
you see as the priority for the next steps? Is it encouraging (members) to
join groups, post content and to give feedback? Furthermore, in the spirit
of broadening communication would it make sense to ask Chapter members to
join the groups, start new groups and post content. Is there anything we can
do to help that?  I'd love to hear from others what they think of this
platform. This will all help tremendously.

thanks again to you and Elena for this starting this work.

Anne

I think Inet is not the big  issue here, but the consequence of a
communication model issue.
Isoc traditional model was strictly hierarchic : HQ- Chapter delegate-
Chapter maembers
People love to have face to face meeting , so regional chapter meetings was
settup. This solves Chapter leaders to chapter leaders communication issue.
Not enough , we are forced to put 4 delegates to the chapter delegated list
to catch up.
I think Isoc will grow naturally and succeed when any isoc global  member
will be able to communicate to any global other member on specific issues .
A decentralised web of chapter members versus a hierarchical , planned model
. Identity is the only central thing Hq should care of and channel the
expertise on strategis subjects. With a bit of collaboration , we managed to
setup an experimental yet working site http://www.anuntul.eu/wordpress/.
Isoc members should be able to discuss anytime , anywhere , not just during
big meetings like INET. This is how i would define success.
I would be pleased as a chapter manager to attend Inet Geneva (i attended
Staockholm and Barcelona in the past ) , but if not , life goes on, not big
deal, we have send anyway  a young and dynamic person to represent Romania.
Regards ,
Ed
