ISOC Major Strategic Initiatives Proposals Submitted to November 1, 2006 Page 7

Take-aways from Yesterday The Advisory Council needs more insight into ISOC priorities, issues and discussions to add value Need better visibility of Board issues and discussion items Perhaps “read-only” access to Board mailing list ? Perhaps a monthly report by Daniel ? Perhaps understanding the Board’s work plan? Need better visibility of ISOC staff and projects Perhaps a monthly report by Lynn, or a monthly call ? ISOC needs to develop and execute a communications plan for the Organization members Need some tools (beyond merely e-mail) to enable the AC to progress work outside of face to face meetings This will take some investment in technology, and staff time Page 8

Advisory Council Operating Plan Going Forward Plans Work with Terry Monroe (ISOC’s new Director for Memberships) to address AC operational issues: improve communications to/from ISOC with AC members convene monthly calls for AC members and their parent orgs improve usability of the ISOC website & tools Mobilize the AC on “ISOC Strategic Initiatives” to contribute recommendation to Board before March 2007 Deliberate on Fred’s proposal to reduce size of Board Articulate goals for AC in 2007, including deliverables and desired future mode of operation Page 9
