The Treasurer is the only one can certify the member list, because the
Treasurer is the one who receives the dues payments.

Thanks to all three candidates for being willing to serve on the board.
That's a generous offer.

darn if tsty hadn't voted himself (presumably) there could have been a
runoff

Perhaps it's time to remove the link to the voting booth from the home
page?

Yes, it is. I have a patch for it if any root wants to apply it to
the subversion repository and regenerate the web site. Let me know
if you want it.

(It really shouldn't be that hard to comment out a single line of the
page. Just do it, already.)

The patch I sent does comment out the line of code. Please patch
the related file in the repository so we can keep all the changes
in in sync and up to date.

If the benefits of version control aren't clear, then I'm left to wonder
how much programming project experience staff have in a multi-programmer
and multi-file environment.

Yes, the benefits of version control are clear to me. However, we are
talking about simply adding <!-- and --> around a block of text. If
they get lost, it's a simple matter to re-add them. For that, version
control, of any kind, is overkill.

So, you'd use version control for some changes and not others? That
makes no sense. And not using version control at all makes less
sense.

resp:109 the difficulty might be in synchronizing stuff? If you add
comments by bypassing svn, when you next rsync, won;t those comments get
clobbered?

Minor stuff that didn't really matter if it got clobbered, I'd simply
make sure that all concerned knew about them and worry about
version-control later. ("We don't need no stinkin' source!" as one
programmer of my acquaintance once put it.)
Make this trivial change on the fly, then patch and submit a
version-controlled copy.
If I were doing this stuff regularly, I might even batch up a bunch of
trivial changes. If they got clobbered, I'd cuss at myself and submit
my updates. :)

So is Dan Cross intent on maintaining his seat on the Grex board? I
ask this because he stated emphatically last month that he would leave
Grex if there was continued discussion citing the leaked wikileaks
documents, as he said it could be problematic to his military status.
Then Mary said she was going to enter yet another wikileaks item in the
new agora and he responded that he was in fact leaving, and hasn't
posted since. It reasonable to ask if he intends to continue being
part of the board of the corporation that sponsors grex when it is
clear that the wikileaks items will continue.
If Dan has in fact gone away for good he should at least go ahead and
resign his seat rather than create needless potential quorum problems
at future meetings.
