From the job description I can figure out the task would be "read boring
bylaw documents", and "learn about different legal systems" ... which is
a
more educational thing than doing real work i guess.
From my experiences working wth the chapters committee, it's not
really educational work. They review the prospective bylaws of a
local chapter and approve the chapter before it goes to the Foundatuon
for the final approval. The ChapCom needs to read up on the
countries' loca laws and legal systems to make surw the bylaws work
and other items.
I agree. I don't think it's an educational work but a political one.
Wikimedia (in terms of organization) is becoming international, and
the Chapters Comittee should guide and manage this process. Hard work
to do, in fact. I can understand quite well the need of more people
helping.
