[Chapter-delegates] Message from Internet Society Audit Committee Chair

[sivasubramanian muthusamy]

Dear Andrew.

Isn't there room in the not-for-profit reporting formats to attach foot
notes to say that a certain Trustee is elected as a "Trustee elected by the
Chapters" and that it is necessary to that the Trustee comes from a Chapter
background, better if the elected Trustee has served or is serving as an
Officer, and that any conflict on Interest seen on paper is not significant
?
