I would strongly advise against this, it will probably just upset people. I think a better solution would be to just change it to "Interested Participants" and, if you want, send them all an e-mail via "E-mail user" notifying them of the mailing list (and asking them to subscribe), the IRC channel, and that you are trying to get the Chapter back on track and would like some assistance writing bylaws.

On wiki is probably the best place. And yes, please a collaborative
process, even if sometimes painful (been there, done that :-) ) is
definitely the way to go. I would strongly advise meta.
