Indeed, and not just majority, but plurality. Since you bring it up... I'm not particularly keen for this aspect of things to be a significant part of decision-making in GNHLUG. Frankly, if anything "we" try to do as "GNHLUG" generates that much controversy that so many people would vote against it, I'd say that's a sign we perhaps shouldn't be doing it. (And, yes, I do also realize that some issues are just unavoidable *and* unavoidably controversial. But we're a Linux user group, not a general government, so one can hope such will be few.) -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org
