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

Tue Jul 28 15:52:04 UTC 2015

Hello Darlene, 

Thank you very much for the encouragement and your input!

As mentioned in the message, we will soon start to design and build the
regional pages, and those pages may be good to place the important
organizing documents and bylaws. We have taken note on what you suggested.
If you have further input, please feel free to share with us.

Best Regards,
Ariel

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!
