I watched their promo video (well: listened to it, while I did more worthwhile things). It runs from Aug 2022 to June 2023 and they are sending these "Ambassadors" to areas where there is already an established branch into which they can be "integrated." So there's a couple of changes. Now: why to where there is an established branch? Is it because (1) after all these years, they realise that sending a bunch of strangers (to each other) to a strange new city (to all of them) isn't actually very helpful; or (2) they can be prodded and spied upon on a daily basis by local leadership. I'd like to think that it meant that failure was less likely (from the participants' PoV) and that real guidance was on hand locally. In actuality, I suspect it will mean that participants will be "overseen" and brought under the thumbs of meanie leaders. Good luck to 'em all. Unlikely anyone at the Cafe will be signing up.
