I have read the proposal, all I'm saying is that is what I was told by the NorCal director.

In this proposal we made it a point to break down how we got the numbers we did, I would encourage you to ask for the same explanation when people throw around numbers like 25-35 events.
If I talk to her again I will, all I'm saying is that was what I was told. I'm not providing any argument or analysis of that statement.

Yes, she did not say "ever", her tone was just that FIRST was not considering districts for California, as they already looked at it, found that it required too many resources, and then closed the case on it. Again, I'm not against the idea of districts, I'm just relaying what I have been told.

For anyone wondering, I was told this information at the San Mateo Maker Faire offseason event.
