<remmers dons his voteadm hat>

Since this is an official proposal item, I direct your attention to
Article 5 of the bylaws, posted at
http://cyberspace.org/local/grex/bylaws.html .
(Note: The version of the bylaws in item 2 of this conference is not
up-to-date with respect to voting procedures.)

The rules are: There's a discussion period of at least two weeks.  At
least 10% of the membership must endorse bringing the proposal to a vote
by so indicating in this item.  After two weeks, but not more than 30
days, have elapsed, the proposer may post a final wording of the
proposal.  Members have 48 hours thereafter to add or withdraw
endorsements.  If the proposal has the necessary number of endorsements
48 hours after the author posts a final wording and requests a vote, it
goes to an online vote via secret ballot.

If the author doesn't request a vote or the necessary number of
endorsements isn't obtained within 30 days of the posting of this item,
the proposal lapses and is not eligible to be voted on.

This proposal item was posted on September 1, so discussion extends at
least through September 14 and will either come to a vote or lapse no
later than September 30.

Assuming that the online member list is up to date, there are 53
members; hence 6 member endorsements are required to bring this to a
vote.  I count 3 so far: scholar, tod, kingjon.
