So that leads nicely into 2008/03 - Rather than focusing the OGB's energies on updating the constitution (which would be an easy task to take on), we explicitly choose instead to tackle the harder task of discovering how to empower the community and make it effective and successful. If this means ignoring the letter of the constitution as we experiment with alternatives that might actually work for us, so be it. of which I'm a strong supporter of, FWIW. How far do we want to take things here, should we go down that path. Do we try and continuously find new meanings in the text, work around it, or otherwise? I guess what I'm trying to determine is what precedent are we going to set for future OGB boards? Glynn
