I checked the IPR Policy to find any cross-references to the Bylaws
that might be affected by the change of letters to numbers, and
discovered that in section 8.3 "Other Key Definitions", there is a
definition under letter "l" that defines the term "Working Group"
which references 5.3.1 (a) and 5.3.1 (e) of the Bylaws.<br>
<br>
I'm not sure how we can overcome this. Is it clear to everyone that
(a) corresponds to 1, (b) corresponds to 2 and so on?<br>

<div>Some additional fixes have been made to the Bylaws
document. Here is the latest:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>The changes are:</div>
<div>1. Fixed formatting of "Member" in the definitions
section.<br>
</div>
<div>2. Changed the list formatting throughout the doc
to comply with the quirky rules of markdown. Lists
that used to be lettered are now numbered and vice
versa.</div>
<div>3. Addressed side-effects of moving membership
criteria out of section 2.1 and into the WG Charters.
Here is the redline:<br>

<div dir="ltr"><br>
<div>* We still vote in categories at the Forum level,
so those category definitions are needed in the
Bylaws. I added language that aligns Forum membership
categories with CWG membership categories.</div>
<div>* Associate Member and Interested Party membership
still happens at the Forum level. Added references to
those membership types in section 2.1</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This last change is significant, so I will
appreciate everyone's review and comments. I now have
two endorsers, so if there are no concerns with these
changes we can begin the discussion period.</div>

<div>Below is a proposed ballot for the
Bylaws updates that we have been
discussing for some time.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As I mentioned on today's call, I
have referenced the documents on GitHub
in the body of the ballot rather than
attaching PDFs as was done in the last
major Bylaws ballot. I have used
permalinks that preserve the exact
version in the ballot, even if changes
are later made to the branch. Please let
me know if you have concerns with this
approach.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm looking for one more endorser so
that I can assign a ballot number and
begin the review period.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would also appreciate everyone's
review of these changes - there are a
lot of changes and thus opportunities
for mistakes.</div>
