In general, I prefer to split motions up whenever people might like one part and not another. (One of my pet peeves about the way our state and national legislatures work is all those huge omnibus bills where you can't get something you want without getting a whole bunch of stuff you don't.) I guess I just assumed that most board members would vote the same way on one of those two as they voted on the other (the category they share being "non-Rootsweb-hosted lists".) If that assumption was wrong, by all means separate them. Does this mean it is a "friendly amendment" and doesn't have to be voted on? I just hope nobody wants to split up the 4 regional lists into separate motions. :-) // Teri
