And to Mike's second question: the group is not _barred_ from seeking recognition as a chapter once more. It can do so at any time. As things stand, though, the group does not meet AffCom's criteria for chapters, so if attempted right now, the group would not attain recognition. That fact, combined with the availability of the User Group model of affiliation, seems to suggest an easy low-commitment path for the Kenyan group to develop. As Bence pointed out, a successful Kenyan WUG could well be the basis for a future chapter.
