re #7 The problem is the bylaws make it too difficult to do anything.
The bylaws have outlived the original vision of the founders. Therefore
I think the easiest thing to do, before considering new membership
setups, is to dissolve the corporation. Get rid of the bylaws entirely
and start over.
Could just form a new 501(c)(3) and cyberspace communications sells it
the assets/property, and the people who use Grex now finally have a
chance for a fresh start, to write a new simpler bylaws. A bylaws that
would provide a future and give people a *reason* to want to invest in
that future.
I think any new membership structure won't work unless the corporate
structure that would govern it is dealt with.

Enough, Richard. We don't need to discuss dissolving the corporation in
every item in this conference. There are other things to talk about as
well. Discuss it in the item you started for that purpose. No one used
'forget'. Quit muddling every item with this garbage, or face being
excluded as people add your name to the 'ignore' list.

"How are board members elected or appointed in the instance of no members?"
Non-profit corporations are created by a meeting of "founders", who can be
stated to be the first board and officers. This has already happened with CC
so converting it to a board-based corportion would be a litle different. I
do not presently know the procedure for this, but it probably involves the
way the current board sets up the restructuring.
