Wrong, there has been plenty of progress, as much as is possible with
the current roadblocks in place. If it were possible to create a new
US-based subnational chapter, I estimate that there would be at least
one created already, and up to half a dozen seriously in the works.
It's not that nobody is organizing, it's that these groups are being
told "Sorry, but we can't accept applications from you yet because
nobody knows what's going on in the US". Remove the roadblocks, and
progress will become self-evident.
I can definitely attest to this. :-) Just a look at
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_chapters> shows two in
planning and a few ideas (I'm sure there are more pages on Meta-Wiki
about this too).
