Various people have requested additional items for the BUF AGM. To clarify, we are only intending to deal with association matters at the AGM. It is our intention to hold elections for the association board of directors soon after the AGM. This election will be the opportunity to raise items relating to next season. One of the more fundamental changes we want to make is to move towards voting in the right *people* rather than voting on every *issue*. This means that directors will be elected on the basis of what they intend/promise to do in their term of office. I will circulate the proposed new constitution soon (when I've finished it!) but the plan is to have a board of around 12 directors. Important jobs like President, Director of Competitions, etc will be elected onto the board specifically but the other directors will essentially be 'without portfolio'. The board will appoint or employ people into other specific roles where these are not performed by directors themselves. Ben
