No, I would support it, if what you are suggesting is that each ISOC
chapter should have a vote and be free to designate any representative
that they wish.
This is in fact the current system; I counted about a dozen ISOC
chapters signing the MOU in addition to the main organization.
The difference is that in my preferred system a single person could
be appointed the representative of many ISOC chapters.
Also, of course, chapters would have to be real associations, not
just single individuals.
