I assumed there were good reasons for this decision that will be
explained at length in due course (I don't require a book-length
explanation by noon tomorrow or whatever, but a precis would be of
interest).

I have noted that with the wildly disparate levels of activity and
organisation in different chapters, precisely how the chapters will
choose two board members is something that will probably take a few
months to sensibly work out :-) I am glad we have time to get it
right, or right enough.
