Real neat. Now, there is a competition between Schiste and you !

There was never such a decision, because we never had the opportunity to 
discuss that all together. I suggest that for now, we make it 
view-restricted to members and have all chapter board members join. 
Because ultimately, the decision will be made by chapters and more 
precisely by boards of chapters, who are legally responsible of 
decisions made by their organization.

When all board members are together on the wiki, we can open a 
discussion to decide whether we collectively agree to open it more or not.

I fear we do not. It seems to me that the best route is to ask every 
chapter to nominate one person to be the contact; and give 
admin/bureaucrat rights to this delegate. Then each delegate is in 
charge of creating accounts for his chapter.

Seems to me the best way so that nobody is forgotten, and no outdated 
name is added.
