Yes, what I wrote doesn't really make sense, does it? What I meant was
that separate chapters is probably best for the WM movement, not
counting the negative impact of being seen to take sides in the
dispute. If you do count that negative impact, then it is much less
clear. People more familiar with the dispute than I am can try and
estimate the extent of the harm taking sides would do.
This is right if the impact of being seen as taking one side is bigger than
that of being seen as taking the other. But as in fact we are not taking
sides perhaps we cold find the way for being seen just as we are: people
looking for the best for the projects.
