Hi Bruce
I don't think having regional groups is in anyway diluted talent.
This may be my own thinking, but I feel that a regional group is where
the value is.
Unless you have local people you can call on and meet with, it may as
well be a global group.
I.e. the value of Aust-NZ is to help facilitate two things:
* Conferences - well done
* Local meets / talent.
Think global, act local :-)
That does not however stop you working together across australia too,
just my opinion of the value of local groups.
