I believe the chapters are equal. Yes, yes, I'm a idealist dreamer. :-)

Certainly all chapters (and in the future 'thorgs') have exactly one
voice each, one vote each, one representative each, regardless of how
many staff they employ, how big their budget is, or even how
successful their programmes are in delivering charitable outcomes.

I do not think this is an either/or situation. All materials will be
public and volunteers helping the WCA task teams are already working
on making case studies and cookbook materials available.

One benefit of making all materials used in a future training and
workshop session public, is that they can be re-used and improved; for
example by volunteers making these available in different languages or
running their own regional sessions for chapter board members and
others that play a part in chapter governance.

Cheers,
