I sent a picture of Jon Bon Jovi and he posted it.

It is my understanding that the states are, for the most part, free to create committees and to revise their guidelines as often as they choose. There is no sanctioning of the Guidelines Revision Committee that is called for, welcomed or required by the AB, the NC or the USGW. Many states have their own guidelines in addition to the USGW guidelines, so yes, it is normal. Any changes, amendments, alterations or redrafts would be voted on by the CC's.

Michelle, You are mixing apples and oranges. The Council and the Guidelines Revision Committee are two separate animals.

Believe Richard could advise you about the process. I think what she was asking was whether the guidelines committee has been approved by the GaGenWeb Council. I think the Secretary of the Council should post the date that the Committee was approved and Richard Pettys appointed as Chairman. Maybe the new guidelines could require that the minutes of the GaGenWeb Council be posted as the natioal minutes are. http://www.usgenweb.com/official/vrecords.html Procedures according to the current guidelines: 22.
