[sac-board] Re: 7.22.5 Board Meeting Agenda

I do not think you can proceed that quickly on such an important issue, 
as it involves changing the SAC Consititution and Bylaws, which requires 
that the issue be announced and then voted upon at a later meeting.  It 
would be desireable to get the Boards' approval or recommendation first, 
however.  So it >could< be presented for the first time to the members 
at the Friday meeting.  I think it would be premature to take a vote on 
it before advertising the proposed change via the newsletter.  There are 
a number of details to be worked out with a lawyer (or statutory agent) 
before proceeding, I think.  You also risk taking up the entire evening 
with discussion of that issue.
I made the suggestion to Thad the other evening that perhaps another 
workable approach would be to set up a corporation for the events such 
as the Messier Marathon, rather than incorporating SAC....
Just my opinion (based upon having written the original C&Bs -- but you 
knew that.)
