I too think there has been some change and promising potential for
more significant change and growing relevance of the WTA. It was a
nice surprise when I saw the candidates (those that are known so far,
anyway) for the board elections coming up in just a couple of weeks
now.

At this time, I'd recommend for every transhumanist to join as a
voting member of the WTA. If in a year or two people still consider
the WTA to be a socialist-biased organisation, they should blame
themselves for not fixing it.
