The WCA plans to represent all the chapters. That's at least a desire. 
But in order to represent, I think we need a mandate. We cannot 
represent a chapter / an entity without its consent, right? For me, 
that's the main reason for having an opt-in model. In my opinion, 
though, opting in should be as easy as putting the name of a 
representative here:

Best,
Markus
