Internet Society Advisory Council (ISOC AC) Officer meeting
Wednesday, Nov. 16, 1994
Reston, Virginia

For the sake of brevity, this message lists the recommendations made during the
first meeting of the recently elected ISOC AC officers.  A subsequent message
will contain the minutes of the meeting.  Present at the meeting were...

Rick Adams
George Clapp
Mike Conn (by phone)
C. Joe Pasquariello
Nicholas Trio
Tony Rutkowski

Resolutions:

1. A draft charter for the Advisory Council will be distributed
   for comment.
2. The ISOC AC officers shall serve for a term of 3 years, after
   which they are not eligible to serve for a consecutive term.
   After a hiatus of one term, however, they are eligible to serve
   again.
3. The officers shall not bear titles (i.e., no Chair, Vice-Chair,
   etc.).
4. Request the Board of Trustees (BOT) to modify the bylaws to
   seat the four officers of AC as voting members of the BOT.
5. Recommend that the special status of the Charter ISOC Members be
   revoked, while recognizing their contribution.
6. Funding for administrative tasks for the Internet presently
   comes from multiple sources to multiple destinations.  For
   better coordination and to establish the role of the ISOC, this
   funding should be channeled through the ISOC.
7. Tony Rutkowski will coordinate Birds of a Feather (BOF) session
   for the ISOC AC at the next IETF.

Recommendation #4 supersedes the following two recommendations made during
the previous ISOC AC meeting:

1.  Recommend that the ISOC AC be allowed to seat one third (1/3) of the
    positions on the ISOC BOT.

2.  Recommend that the ISOC AC appoint four ex-officio (non-voting)
    liaison members to the BOT and request that the BOT appoint one or
    more return liaison(s) to the ISOC AC.
