>> Hi Nuno,

>>> Let us all (at least the ones who read these threads), compromise in
>>> bringing in a new member every month, for the next 6 months.
>>>
>>> But we need:
>>> a) to have a simplified (yet rigorous) admission process
>>>
>>
>> the current process is quite simple, people need to apply through online
>> form which is quite easy. I acknowledge that we had problems with a backlog
>> but we could shorten the time for review in last months. EC is still
>> working on that and one task is to improve the application. why? one reason
>> of delay is that EC needs sometimes to get more information from applicants
>> and that tend to take some time since we have difficulty to get response in
>> timely manner. so asking more details ( we found we have some recurrent
>> questions) since the beginning would help the EC to proceed more quickly.
>>
>> b) to improve the quality of the language we use in these discussions.
>>> Some emails are so cryptic that any newcomer that read them feels a
>>> complete ignorant. Please let us avoid using abreviations and topics that
>>> go way back to other threads and stuff like "John decided in the NCSO to
>>> argue against GAC proposal". Seriously guys, give the newcomers a break and
>>> let us use more friendly and inclusive language. And keep subjects on its
>>> relevant topic
>>>
>>
>> I am more nuanced here, I would expect someone willing to join the
>> non-commercial stakeholder group in the generic names supporting
>> organization will get used quickly to NCSG and GNSO :) but yes we can
>> improve the language.There is good practice like done by Avri who put in PS
>> tho what acronyms stands. there is also the acronyms glossary provided by
>> ICANN here https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/glossary-2014-02-03-en
>>
>> in general I advise new members to check this
>> https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/How+to+get+Involved
>> (still work in progress)
>>
>> I also am testing new method now by having more clearer email subject and
>> using tags to indicate the importance and purpose of the emails I am
>> sending.
>>
>> All these are just experiments for now and see if there is any
>> improvement or feedback.
>>
>> c) someone (not me) should prepare a standard welcome email with relevant
>>> links
>>>
>>> well I already do this , example
>> http://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A2=NCSG-DISCUSS;5a01b6d7.1405
>>
>> Rafik
>>
>>
>>
>> So here are my two cents.
>>>
>>> I will start tomorrow to bring new interested members to the
>>> Non-Commercial Users Constituency.
>>>
>>>
>>> Warm regards,
