It's a total corporate restructuring, and requires 15 days notice before the meeting starts to be considered. I don't have the time to draft the documentation required anyways. Now, if someone wants to form the Lojban users/advocacy group I suggested, that would be no problem, as the whole *point* there was for it to have no corporate issues to worry about. -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** http://www.lojban.org/ Reason #237 To Learn Lojban: "Homonyms: Their Grate!"
