Re: Applications processed + future renewals

[Andy Tai <lichengtai yahoo com>]

You mean to end on Aug 31, 2003, right?

I don't know if that is compatible with the bylaws. 
If we (meaning the membership committee as an entity,
regardless of the people in the committee) have
promised a two year membership interval, then we
cannot end it prematurely... I think.

Also, the membership interval should still be two
years, as the bylaw says so, and the most recent
guideline issued by the board saying "one year"
contradicts the bylaw and the bylaw takes precedence. 
This was confirmed by board member and the foundation
director on the foundation mailing list.
