View source for Local Chapters and Communities Working Group

One of the foundation [[Working Groups]], the '''Local Chapters Working Group''' are responsible for running the process of setting up federated OSM-Foundation [[Local Chapters]]
__NOTOC__
Now that Local Chapters are up and running, the group has been restarted as a place to encourage the growth of local communities and set them on a path to maybe one day become a Local Chapter.
