Hi Phil, Thank you for your write up.

People will question things when they doubt things. I think the questions raised at the time were not wrong. If you don't have any problem let me ask you to clarify the ownership of thephpleague once again . I am asking the question for I came across a thread by Woody Gilk : https://groups.google.com/d/msg/thephpleague/TedrYlsTJ1Q/5coHyHClBQAJ Question to FIG members regarding why secretary should not be a member project member or lead of project ? Is that any where mentioned why can't a project member cannot be a secretary ? What I don't understand is what may be the reason that member projects are not allowed to be a secretary when the secretaries cannot vote?
