The polls will open at one minute after midnight, Eastern Standard Time,
March 8, and close at one minute before midnight, Eastern Standard Time,
March 17, which is ten days minus ten minutes.
I figured folks could use 24-hours notice of the polls opening. :)
I'll make an announcement in agora and in the MOTD, but I am not mucking with
the web page tonight.

The polls will be open ten days minus TWO minutes, not ten minutes. I can
count, I just can't type. :(

Joe, can the vote link be added to the MOTD when it is active, please?

The command-line voting both has been closed for a while, I learned
recently. There may be a way to put a lynx link into a text file, but I
don't know how it would be done.
There was some talk about a shell wrapper around lynx so that 'vote'
would work again, but I'm not ambitious enough to figure it out right
now.

BTW, we weren't really down 24 hours, but I extended the voting period to the
end of 18 March anyway. I should update the motd, I guess.

I'm still waiting for a certified list of voters. A preliminary count shows
seven for and one against. The proposal *probably* passed.

There is no hurry. As long as it's resolved by the next election, that
will be fine.
Thanks, Joe!

I now have the list of members. All but two of the votes were cast by
members. The only NO vote was cast by a member. So the members voted five
for and one against, which is more than the three-fourths requried to pass an
amendment to the by-laws. Accordingly, the by-laws have been amended to
remove the term limits on Directors. Directors may now serve for as many
terms as they can convince the members to elect them to.

The files have been updated to reflect this change to the bylaws. If someone
could please edit the web link to access:

All the links and files that I could find that referred to the
previous version of the bylaws have been updated to refer to
v9. If I missed any, let me know. You might need to update
your browser cache to find them, though.

Could items 26 and 325 (old versions of the bylaws) be retired? cmcgee
retired item 2 when 26 was entered.
Resigning to be re-elected won't fix the staggered problem: a vacancy is
filled for the remainder of the original term, not for a new term.
It's going to take some actual work to break the board into two classes.
