I agree.  Hopefullt some "smarter heads" whith experience in such things
should take thie lead?

I promise not to join the flame wars!  Will that do?

Besides, Joanna and Judith resigned from the panel, not the At Large!
Hopefully they'll continue to contribute as members (please!)  :)

|  Unfortuately, it appears both Joanna Lane and Judith Oppenheimer
|  have chosen to resign over what I firmly believe is still a
|  non-issue at this time.
|
|  I'm sure all of us wish they hadn't chosen to resign precipitously but
|  their decisions are perhaps understandable in the light of their
|  personal fears of frivolous but costly litigation.
|
|  Since they *have* resigned, it is of the utmost importance that
|  the Interim Panel members departing be replaced as soon as
|  possible. Although I have personal reservations about the
|  process of automatically appointing those ranked as "honourable
|  mentions" in the Panel Election, that seems to be the will of
|  the group and I hope that the Panel will contact the people in
|  question individually rather than trust they are going to pick
|  it up informally from this list.
|
|  I have two requests in addition:
|
|  1) Could we please devote our attention for the next little
|  while to coming up with a set of Interim Bylaws so all members
|  can know what the correct processes are?
|
|  2) Would any women in the "silent majority" please make their
