So I think you need K+1 people to make any change to the original GR text (other than A.1.6 minor changes), but the proposer can make changes to the *amendments* provided that all sponsors agree. Each time I think I understand the current constitutional rules, I realize that I missed something. (I think the rest of the analysis still holds, although my change is more complicated than making point 1 apply to all ballot options.) -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
