For Chapters, I suggest you check who among your active volunteers are most active on Commons[2] and ask them to help engage or create discussion about policy and guideline changes. If you cannot find anyone close to your chapter that is active and engaged on Commons, perhaps you should change that situation before firing off official letters.
As for WMIT, we're considering to write one letter too and of course we'll give maximum priority to the opinion and advice of our members who are active on Commons and Wikisource. I've not reviewed the exact wording of each letter to ensure they don't attack/offend Commons: they certainly should not, the hard-working and backlog-overwhelmed Commons users are jewels; but I think on-wiki essays, including open letters, are an entirely legitimate method for any person or group to freely express their opinion on any Wikimedia topic. Especially on Meta-Wiki, freedom of opinion and expression from all wikimedians is highly valued.
