Foundation Bylaws

Discussion continued about the proposed bylaws document.

The main remaining concern is that the proposal may be percieved as "pay-to-play" and to the detriment of the community.

However, it was decided that this discussion had been blocking too long and that the current proposal should be released to the community for feedback in order to break the deadlock.

It was decided therefore that a refined version of the current proposal would be released to the community early next week along with some words about the rationale behind the proposal and what the board is hoping to achieve with these bylaws.

It was also agreed that Scott would work with Dick to refine the proposal and get it ready to present to the community before the next meeting.
