Re: [Wikimediaus-l] Agreement on the future of chapters in the US?

Instead, I'd like to propose that we put together an agreement in principle to outline a shared vision for the development of US chapters. The agreement would essentially outline three key goals: (1) Creating a network of regional Wikimedia chapters across the United States; (2) Building collaboration among the regional Wikimedia chapters in the US; and (3) At some point in the future, forming an association of Wikimedia chapters in the US. By signing the agreement, the signatories would simply indicate their support of these goals. The agreement could therefore be signed on an individual basis -- i.e. each of the attendees at our July meeting could sign on their own behalf -- rather than only by chapters or other regional groups (which would sharply limit the number of potential signatures, and significantly increase the complexity of the entire exercise). Would something along these lines be of interest to the participants here? I think this is an excellent way to move this forward, count me in.
