http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Chapters_meeting_2009/Committees#Chapters.27_association I was in the "Relationships" discussion in 2009 and after defining all the different relationships and a vision for 10 years we had quite interesting discussions and ideas which can be summarized best as "having kind of a UN structure between chapters and foundation / public". I will bring photographs of the posters we have made in this session, so we can pick up some of the ideas. /Manuel Am 05.07.2010 06:42, schrieb Jan-Bart de Vreede: > Actually, sounds like quite a good definition, and quite a good idea! > > Jan-Bart > > > > > On 5 jul. 2010, at 03:09, Liam Wyatt <liamwy...@gmail.com > <mailto:liamwy...@gmail.com>> wrote: > >> The "council of chapters" concept is a proposal that has had several >> previous names - but is effectively the idea of having a central body >> of chapters to organise themselves for more effective advocacy (both >> public facing and also relative to the WMF), pool resources (e.g. >> toolserver governance), share expertise and act in a more coordinated >> fashion.
