McTim, Based on my understanding of the feedback from various members there is a feeling that we have a country chapter first, to enable us take off of since the City Chapters might not be self sustaining at the moment after which we can start forming city chapters, i think after forming a team some of our members based in the Cities can start of the City Chapters with the help of the Country Chapter,
I think the key point to consider is that city chapters CANNOT be started if there is a national Chapter. I'm not sure about "sub-chapters", perhaps Christine from ISOC can advise us. i agree with you Mctim that we should find a way of
working with other Industry players such as TESPOK and KeNIC, i noticed thatb in most countries there is a close working relationship between the ISOC Chapters and the ccTLD community can we pursue this route?
Of course, but I think it is the mobicos that have the deepest pockets. If we can be seen to help them with Universal Service obligations (by spreading the edge of the network) then they could see a way to help us I am speculating). -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek.
