Which other criteria are so onerous that folks are reacting like the letter indicts the entire system of chapters?
Because that's its effect: "The entire system of chapters, except WMDE, is hereby recentralised. Thanks for your hard work, everyone!"
Saying nice things about how much you like decentralisation does not change the effect.

Other than saying "You're recentralising the chapters by forcing us to
raise
/ receive money through the WMF!" no one has really adequately described

UH ???
One year ???????

True, I misspoke. Twelve chapters participated in 2010, 9 in 2009, 6 in 2007. Apologies for the error.
