FYI... The DECUS President at the Monday Board Meeting at Symposia made a statement about all the Net traffic about the By-Law change. The statement he made was "The Board has made its decision regarding the By-Laws and moved onto other things. There are those in leadership who continue to politicize this issue by posting to the networks. They to should stop this and move onto other things." This was part of the 5 minute lecture the President gave about this issue. The thrust of it was once the Board had made the decision all the other volunteers should have stop discussing the issue or in my words stopped trying to inform the electrorate. How do you feel about this? Do you also feel it was inappropriate for those opposed to the Board's action to make their opinions known during the voting process? You can also make your comments known to the President by sending him a message at BRINDLEY@DECUS.ORG.

Odd, I was at that meeting, and that was not the impression I had of
Bill's statement. He stated that the BoD had made its decision and would
not make further statements about it. It was not in the hands of the
DECUS membership to decide. I do not recall any admonishment for DECUS
volunteers to stop discussing the issue. It was not a "lecture", but
merely a reading of a prepared statement, which I had seen either in
notes or mail from the BoD, at least a week earlier.

Now I know you are very talented fellow but I didn't know invisiablity was one of your talents - because I truly don't remember seeing you at the Board meeting on Monday (GWCC room 202). Granted there is generally a fog in the room when that group meets. The events I was referring to happened at the Monday meeting. ;-)
