Would that satisfy the Foundation? What Sue Grdaner is exploring is
what might be required by the WMF Board of Trustees compliance with US legislation.
As Sue makes clear in her email, it is a fairly speculative question. How
would we react _if_ someone thought this was required?
In those circumstance WMUK would take advice about how, or if, it could
be made to work legally. However, probably more important for our answer right now is how people *feel* about this rather than trying to look at the legal issues, which we can't do productively over an email list.
It might be worth making clear to Sue that it would be a decision for the members, not the board. Therefore, the board can't really say how the chapter would respond to such a request from the WMF.
