Dear Bishakha,
please take your time - at this point there is no need to hurry since the board meeting has already finished anyway.
Kind regards, Lodewijk

Dear Thomas, Lodewijk and others,
I will reply to this thread once I finish the work meeting at which I am currently.

Bishaka,
Seeing as there was no public discussion of these amendments, to my knowledge, can you at least explain them now?
The responsibilities of the Secretary and Treasurer are board responsibilities. While the day-to-day work of the role may be delegated
to
staff, it is still the job of the board to ensure that everything is done correctly. How does the board intend to do that in future? Have
individual
trustees been appointed as liaisons to these new officers? Or are there committees to oversee their work? On Nov 2, 2012 9:29 AM, "Bishakha Datta" bishakhadatta@gmail.com

Dear all,
At its in-person meeting of 26 October, the Board of Trustees also
approved
the two following resolutions:

Please note the substantive change in Article V: Officers and Duties.
As
per the amendments, the Secretary and Treasurer are now non-trustee
officer
positions.
In line with this amendment, non-trustees have been appointed to both
these
positions. The resolution approving these appointments is published at:
