ISOC.DE applauds the initiative with the greatest respect
towards the well renowned proponents.  That said, we would
like to ask for a clarification regarding chapter eligibility.

than a cross region ISOC member organisation.  No doubt it
deserves support from ISOC, but we remain unconvinced that
a chapter is the best choice, strategically.
