That sounds like the need for a working group, not a separate legal entity. > OSM-F Local > * Local community building and outreach > * Local / national conferences > * Local / national press contacts & outreach > * Supporting local user groups in mapping and outreach > * Running local websites > * Local membership schemes If OSMF can't deal with a sub-task to handle UK-related matters, what hope is there of any sub-organisation dealing with sub-sub-tasks? Do we need to incorporate OSMF-GB-London-Postboxes Ltd, or would OSMF-GB-London be able to set up a relevant working group? We only need separate legal entities when we reach the edges of separate legal systems. It feels like we're having a "relations are not categories" argument here - we don't need to put every different activity into a separate legal body.
