I agree with both of you. Most of our discussions took place when the situation regarding fundraising, funds dissemination and the perceived attitude of the Foundation towards the chapters' model in general was fairly different (and we had no influence on such changes). I don't find it acceptable that some potentially outdated proposals are taken as the current, global and final position of this working group --not because they aren't applicable now, but because if we had discussed them later our conclussions could have been somewhat different.
