I believe that long sessions are not good and after a while we do not have their full attention any more. May be we could prepare a list of speakers instead of having an individual speech for each country. Hector

I am aware that not everyone can make the Tuesday meeting, so I am suggesting that the Sunday meeting be a formal and policy-based event, while a Tuesday event should be more for socializing and enabling Chapter delegates to learn from each other on local issues such as governance, communications and outreach.

>> Anyway, that is my opinion, to go back to two meetings. The last one in Durban was near useless for me in terms of EITHER informing me about ISOC programs/priorities OR sharing knowledge with and meeting other chapters.
