I agree with the sentiment Jonathan. However, it's about more than just knowing what's needed to make CS better. I think we lack the political backing to be as successful as other countries, as politicians here don't see Chess as do others from other nations. It might be prudent to try to win the attention of our politicians before embarking on trying to replicate another nation's success. Simply because one of the major things that a fact-finding mission would undoubtedly come back with would be that there is far more support for Chess in other countries; politically, financially, and in terms of people's general perceptions of the game.
