I completely echo Anya's comments with regards to the description.

With regards to languages and provided the lack of people from French speaking countries in the DC3, or, in the case of Africa, the few people from French speaking countries involved in community networks, that we make an special effort in this regard too.

best,

carlos

I agree with the comments, thanks Anya, you are totally correct. 

I also agree the multi lingual issue, my sugesstion for the moment is to ask anyone that tweets from the account to take the moment to translate into the other two languages beside their native one, (I consider English, Spanish and Portuguese the main three), it's a little bit fuzzy but to put 140 characters into translation is not that hard, and if the person is not sure about the translation check with a partner.

Finally about the credentials I think this is the best option

Anyone with access should be aware that is our community manager and the expressions made here will be seeing as the opinion of the DC3 so... handle with caution.

I agree with all the changes and implemented them already.

If other trusted people want the password for the account, please let me know. I want this account to be an account of our community. :)

I agree with Anya's comments. The account was created by Raoul "in the


heat of the moment" during the IGF, but I think it's good to have some


discussion about the Coalition's presence in social networks  in


general, what will be the message and the importance of localization.





We need to keep this in our agenda.





For the time being, Anya's concern regarding the phrase "We are building


a community driven internet" and her proposal to change this for: "We


are building a community driven networks" is an important and easy to


solve issue. Similar concerns came up many times during the IGF.





I propose if no-one disagrees with this change, to implement it. If


anyone disagrees, please explain :)





Cheers!


Nico
