Oscar, I don't know why you aren't seeing the changes I've made -- maybe it's because I never attached the updated bylaws. Therefore, please find the revised version attached.
Is there anything else you want changed, or shall I submit it to chapcom? --Abbas.

Thanks Abbas,
I am okay with the content of the bylaws.Just afew queries:
What of the Project Manager position and roles?
Chris came up with a few suggestions and I wrote them up on page 11. Do you have any more you would like to add? I am on Page 11 and nothing about the Project Manager is mentioned? Plus I dont rember seeing Chris' or anyones suggesdtions other thanAlex and I about the Project manger's roles
And the clause that limits the spending powers of the Treasurer?or it would be a silent one?
Ofcourse not. It is under the chairperson's role on page 10. It states: "He/she shall review
and approve expense vouchers. All payments on behalf of the Chapter shall be first approved by him before the payment is made by the Treasurer." Am at it,I however can oversee a situation where we will have an all powerful chairperson who calls all the shots.What I maent is ,what if the chair denys the expenditure yet it may be right?Shouldnt a 3rd person be involved say the secretary?or any board member?
Lastly,I thought we agreed to drop Chairperson to just Chair..:-)
Oscar, I don't remember us agreeing on that. I just checked out what the word "Chair" means on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chair. Do you still want us to re-title it?
Thanks for the reference but I do think the contexts do point differently and yes my vote would be for the chair rather than Chairperson...but then I only have one vote.....
