[chapter-delegates] Results of the board discussion on membership (redux)

[Franck Martin]

All our chapter members have one vote to elect our chapter board. It is 
the same for all chapters. It is even required to be a chapter that 
every member can elect the board (I think).

Why the system should be totally diffrent for ISOC ?

Cheers
