Dear Rory, you wrote on HOT task 9844:

While we don't provide links, we're leaving space for misunderstanding, 
so instead of misunderstanding you, let me tell you I simply do not 
understand what you're talking about, would you mind providing some 
detail?  I'm not aware of (recent) efforts to get in contact and 
definitely of any effort at all for staying in contact.  I do not even 
know who's the new president of the chapter, let alone the members, or 
their plans.

the DWG blocked some of their accounts, and in the text of the message 
they received there was this part:

> The most important bit here is that every single member of your team 
> is recognizable as being in our team (e.g. by writing something on the 
> user profile page) and that the team leadership is reachable for us.
The page they created does not contain a list of their members, and none 
of the persons who's read the message has complied with this request.

as said, we don't know who's at the leadership.

so, no, I don't believe the YouthMappers chapter in Panama responded to 
either me nor the DWG.

best regards,

Mario Frasca

questions):
