Dear all,

As an ISOC chapter, our online presence is expected to conform to best
practices and lead by example. Properly adhere to modern standards like
IPv6, DNSSEC, TLS,  protect the privacy of those interested in their work,
and offer inclusive, fully accessible web content for screens of all sizes,
these are just a few examples.

Building and maintaining such an infrastructure however, is knowledge
intensive and also work that has to compete for scarce time with actual
policy activities, organisation building and awareness raising within and
around chapters.

Go ahead and check your chapters website at https://en.internet.nl . Do you
recognize this friction between what we preach and what we practice? Can we
change this? Yes! The vast majority of chapters has the same needs, and the
internet as an infrastructure is at our feet - so why not collaborate and
create open source tools and shared facilities that live up to our
expectations and of society around us.

ISOC-NL, together with ISOC-NYC wants to start a project that results in
just such a number of tools, recommendations and shared support facility,
to be used by ISOC chapters in whatever way they see fit.


As a first step we kindly invite you to fill out our survey
<https://isoc.nl/survey> (https://isoc.nl/survey), that explores your
chapter needs through a number of short user stories, and also gives you
the opportunity to participate actively in the project.

The results of the survey will help us put together a project description
which we will share with you, and which we will use to apply for the
necessary financial support at ISOC.org.

Kind regards,

On behalf of Internet Society Netherlands,

Alexander Blom and Michiel Leenaars
