Yes, you are.  You aren't a voting member, but a member of the 
community.  The voting membership is a legal device to manage the business 
of the community, but there are many voting members that consider it their 
job to serve as representatives for the greater community.  As we go into 
online meetings, I'm hoping we can have orderly meetings and also allow the 
larger community to sit in on the meeting if they wish.  The details of the 
meeting and how it will be run haven't been worked on yet.

I suspect that it will come up. %^)  There will in any case be a call for 
agenda items in the spring.

The statement was NOT a statement of category, but a unilateral declaration 
of an end to the war with TLI, stating that we had won.
