Dear Councillors,

As you may know several of the ccNSO working groups are now using the virtual meeting tool Adobe Connect as an additional communication tool for their conference calls and I would like to note that this is an option for the Council as well.

Adobe Connect is good for several reasons:

- Communicating through the chat

- Displaying documents

- Connecting to the call using only the computer

- Voting on simple issues/documents

The most important thing is that nobody should feel excluded and we are aware that many of you on occasions need to take the Council calls on the road with no internet access. 

 It would be of much help o us if you could all indicate whether or not you think Adobe Connect would be a good tool for the Council calls, either on the list or directly to me.

Based on how people respond we will decide on whether or not it is worth a try.

Kind regards,

Kristina
