Hello All, I agree with Walu, lets have a country chapter first, before we begin dispersing....my concern would be, are the activities going to be restricted within the chapter 'borders' ? because in that case the Nairobians have to think real hard.

We were informed that Chapter formation might take up to a year, so we should take our time figuring out what we want a Chapter to do.
Obviously we need to meet again to discuss this, but let's have your ideas online first!
Daniel, what is it that you think an ISOC Chpater should do??
Maybe we should all list our top 3 items?
We also need to consider seriously the idea of a City Chapter and not a Country Chapter. After all, if we are not active in kisumu/mombasa/.elsewhere, then we shouldn't deny folks there from making their own chapter!

Dear Daniel,
Thank you for your interest for the Internet Society and your enthusiasm
to
promote the Internet Society's mission in your region. Indeed, East Africa is going through major ICT changes and the Internet Society would like to continue to contribute the development of Internet in East Africa, which is why we are very happy that the Kenyan chapter establishment is going well.
As I said to the members of the establishment team that we met in Nairobi last week, the African regional bureau is available to assist/advise you in the process. We are expecting the formal application that I hope will come soon. After that, we will advise you about every step that you need to follow to have the chapter chartered the briefest delay.
Best regards, Dawit

Good point McTim, we need consensus on what we should as a chapter, on the model what if we have a country chapter and then various city offshoots, Grace can you advice from a legal perspective?

McTim,
I get ur point about Nairobi Chapter - particularly because most membership is likely to be based around Nairobi. HOWEVER, I would advise we go for the KENYA chapter despite this fact.
Reasons? 1.? A Nairobi Chapter would from the word go be exclusive (denying potential Non-Nairobi members an opportunity to join given that other chapters MSA, KSM etc are less likely to go live any time soon)
2. Usually start with a Country Chapter and after years of growth and demonstrated value, then other chapters can be encouraged to "break-away"...
walu.
