Re: Proposed amendment to bylaws to allow non-member directors

[Frederic Muller <fredm gnome org>]

OK. So you made me feel there was no risk to answer something I didn't 
want. From my experience (it initially told me I chose something not 
available....) the Yes/No is the answer to that question which doesn't 
appear anywhere, and then clicking on it adds it to preferences....

And then the next screen confirms you vote yes or no to the question. So 
I voted, and hopefully what I wanted ;-)

Thank you for your help.

Fred
