I see no problem if members use the Charter area of the Forum to deposit 
proposed articles for discussion and amendments. There are good tools 
there, for every member's use,  designed to  make debating drafts easy  and 
clear.

On the main body of the website draft Bylaws , Charter or Constitution 
articles  will have an aura of authoritativeness. There I do see a 
potential railroading problem.

You , David and Hans are all seasoned and salaried political operators, so 
you know what I mean.

BTW, Jamie, do you still agree with Hans that webmaster accountability 
rules are not a priority?

After the exchanges read here in the last few days  I now feel very 
strongly  about them and I would like to propose a Resolution of this 
members' Assembly that the Panel *make* webmaster accountability rules an 
urgent priority. Seconds please.

Shanghai will give us a great deal of added web traffic and it is critical 
that the members are protected from  possible website shenanigans.
The webmaster too needs protection from hard pushing Panel members without 
clear majority support.
