[CS Bureau] PC 2 - Bureau Information Kit

[Robert Guerra]

I'd like to put forward the idea of creating a CSB information kit 
for the upcoming bureau.

The kit in question would  include:

* Short biographies and pictures of  the bureau members - that way 
people would know who we are
* Updated contact information - so people can get in touch with us
* Perhaps a short description of the NGO and/or organization we are with
* Set of usefull links for people to visit

The idea of pictures is one that I raised in Cape Town, and we 
agreed? Viola also took pictures, or i think she did?


In terms of what such a information kit would look like, one doesn't 
have to far.  Perhaps we can do something along the lines of the 
NGLS - Contact Staff Page @
http://www.un-ngls.org/contact_and_staff_information.htm
(the short paragraph and pictures are nice)

Several of you have contacted me in regards to updating your contact 
information that's online - and i've said i'd like to wait until 
there's a clear policy from the bureau as to where the best place to 
put the content might be.

Ramin and I have put forward offers in regards to hosting, websites 
and other online services. It would be good to get comments and setup 
something BEFORE the prepcom.

Here are some sites to look at:

NGLS's WSIS site (section on the CSB)
http://www.un-ngls.org/wsis--csb.htm

The "beta" site that I have placed online and am "waiting" comments 
from the bureau members..
http://www.wsis-csb.org/

- this site can allow for each individual bureau members manage their 
own content. One will be able to update your section anything, and 
can include modern functionality such as RSS feeds, blog, wiki and 
file depository.
- it can also accept RSS feeds from other sites
   (http://www.wsis-csb.org/news/news-en/)

I prefer the later as it's what i'm offering, it's a bit more modern 
then the NGLS site. I won't say more.


Just, as i mentioned earlier - it would be good to have things READY 
BEFORE the prepcom

regards

Robert
