The importance of having a chapter

Every now and again, I read something on one of the mailing lists that is REALLY exciting. Something that may put a different perspective on things.

In a reply on the Foundation-l, mentioned that a large donation of content is not going to one of our projects because there is no chapter. RYU Cheol asks if we would like to promote donations of content as much as donations in money.

Even though this apportunity is lost to us, it is a clear sign why it is important to have chapters in as many countries as feasible; they help us achieve our goals.
Thanks,
