Dean,

One gap in the current Bylaws is that it is not clear that Associate Members can participate in Working Groups and the Public mailing list.  It should probably be clarified that Associate Members have all the privileges of Interested Parties.

Thanks,
Peter

I doubt this would be controversial and is just the movement of one paragraph from one section to another.  Maybe you can consider this change in the next clean-up ballot?

We do however ask the applicant this question, after they have submitted their application. It would be helpful to have this in the bylaws so we don’t have to go back and ask every time.
