There isn't. I'm just trying to clarify things and have just one balloting process as I develop the amendment process. The sections I'm looking at are: --- 2.1.1 Ballot Content Measures and Constitutional changes may be placed on a ballot by the decision of the Board or by a petition signed by more than 10 percent of the Electorate Group members. 5. Constitutional Amendments This Constitution may be changed by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Electorate Group's membership participating in a quorate election where a properly formed and balloted constitutional amendment is considered, provided that the proposed deletions and additions, when applied to the Constitution, will result in a new Constitution that remains in complete compliance with the OpenSolaris Charter. --- I'm looking at directly referencing section 2.1.1 in section 5. And, mentioning amendments in 2.1.1. BTW. I think doodle and similar methods would be a good way to do petitions I'll put together a proposal. Cheers, Jim
