the two following resolutions:

This resolution approved the revised and amended Foundation bylaws. The
updated Bylaws are being adopted to ensure the Foundation's continued
compliance with applicable laws and to further clarify certain procedural
matters.

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:

All resolutions from the in-person meeting of 26 October have now been
published.

Questions and comments, as always, are welcome.

Best
