Hello hello,
Can somebody please tell what is ISOC-MU?
I Googled it and found something about an Internet society in Mauritius. Is that like a group ... an official group or something? Can i join? Is there any ISOC member on this mailing list who can enlighten me more on this topic?
Cheers \M/

ISOC-MU worries me.
I find it hard to digest that we have a not-so-active Internet Society in Mauritius. I've been pinging them several times and it's like head bang against the wall. Now, having ISOC-MU to toss their views/opinion/help in this forum, well, that would be just like having dummy representatives. I've seen this culture in past activities (involving other groups & other projects, not related to Internet stuffs) where in a room of 30 - 40 people just 3 - 4 would push ideas.
I wanted to see the calendar of activities of ISOC Mauritius, so I could align LUGM activities and participate accordingly. Alas, ISOC-MU appears to be a closed-knit group. I wonder how much Internet users can change through the local chapter.
If the question is asked to how much the local chapter of Internet Society represents the views of Internet users in Mauritius; I'd say "nada".
I think MIU is on better track. I have at least seen some people here contributing in the advancement of an Internet culture in Mauritius; whether directly through MIU activities or other channels.
