I think it's a great idea.
Besides the local coordination, it will be a good space for new
members.
Not everyone working on CNs can speak English!

Hi all,
During the planning of the meeting in Buenos Aires, we have been
talking
through informal channels with people who are
starting to work on
community networks in Latin America, in order to invite them to the
event in September.
Two factors have led to the idea that regional CNSIG mailing lists
would
be useful:
1) the language barrier. Many projects don't have fluent english
speakers among their members.
2) project maturity: an increasing number of projects are only now
starting their journey in community networking.
This led to the idea that a CNSIG-LAC mailing list with
spanish/portuguese as main languages would allow connecting these
groups
as well as serving as a seedbed (is that the
correct term for
"semillero"?) for groups that could be part of the Council later on.
Regional lists would opens up the opportunity for cases such as
Tunapanda (Africa) and other projects that have already expressed
interest in joining the SIG, to join first in their regional lists
and
later on apply for the Council when the time is
right.
I would like to know your opinions on this.
I'm only proposing to open the LAC regional list in this decision
thread, but if other members wish to propose opening now their
regional
lists, go ahead and open other decision threads
:)
Cheers!
Nico
