-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 David, thanks for pointing this out. Although I am not quite sure about which list is more up to date. We also have the Local Chapters category in the Wiki [1] which should be the most inclusive. It does not differentiate between "officially endorsed", "just emerging" or "existing, but mostly dormant".
One reason for this diversity is that we have no central point of contact who maintains these lists. Which is why I included the Local Chapters mailing list. This is not an official committee but rather a place for conversations around Local Chapters. Eventually we might want to make this a committee so that there is a responsible body that can at least keep track of what is going on around the world. I suggest to merge the list in the Local Chapters page into the Categories page which will be easier to maintain. Hearing no objections I will do that in the next days. ...and there are more places that need to be cleaned up. The woes of a grown Wiki, sigh... Best regards, Arnulf.
