Art V sect 9 - possible conflict with Art II sect 6 and 8

["Eric Scace" <scace@uu.net>]

   The proposed amendment to Art V sect 9 conflicts with the proposed new
Art II Sect 6.

   Art V Sect 9 states that the term of an At Large Director begins on
October 1 following delivery of written notice from the At Large Council.

   Art II Sect 6 and 8, plus the staff comments, implies that the first
group of At Large Directors are to begin their terms sooner than 2000
October 1.

   My suggestion is Art II Sect 8, be modified to add two points:
-- not withstanding the provisions of Art V Sect 9, the first three At Large
Directors chosen by the At Large Council shall begin their terms immediately
after the Board designates the three Initial At Large Directors to be
replaced.
-- not withstanding the provisions of Art V Sect 9, the next six At Large
Directors chosen by the At Large Council shall begin their terms immediately
upon receipt by the Secretary of written notice from the At Large Council,
informing the Secretary of the selections made by the At Large Council.
