[ALAC] Upcoming brainstorm sessions - At-Large Website Revamp

[Darlene Thompson]

Hi all,

I know that I have absolutely not been as involved as I should be.
Firstly, let me just say that you guys have done a WONDERFUL job of the new
website.  I love all of the links for newcomers and that is SO important.

However (isn't there always a however?  LOL)  what I, personally, see as
missing is a decent link to each areas important documents.  When I was
secretariat for NA, I ALWAYS had to root and search for our bylaws and
such.  I see that this is still not addressed in the new website.  I am
VERY excited that this website has been made so much more usable for
newcomers (which is what we want) but I do really think that you need to
have some kind of link directing people to each region's operating
procedures and such.  Those are bloody difficult to find unless you have
experience with ICANN's various web sites.

That's just my two cents worth.  KEEP ON doing it peeps!
