Board members, Discussion period is at an end by more or less unanimous consent as two or three members ignored the statement not to include comments with their vote. If you wish to make a statement at this time, even though the discussion period is over, please do so in a separate email. Votes that contain additional comments will be tossed out - the member will be asked to vote again during the time period of the vote. Voting to commence immediately and to end either after all members have voted or 48 hours whichever comes first. Please vote on Motion 00-8 made by Richard, seconded by Jim - I make the Motion 'to over ride the National Coordinator's de-link of the USGenWeb Census Project.' by replying with one of the following options only: YES - a vote of yes means that the NC overstepped authority and that the link should be restored for the CP NO - a vote of no means that the NC is within bounds and that the CP should remained de-linked ABSTAIN - a vote of abstain means that you are ambivalent on this issue 2/3 vote required to pass after a quorum is reached. Thanks, Tim
