Given that they were not even following their own bylaws, I hardly see how that is "working well." I'm troubled that you seem ok with governance processes more suited to a local bake sale than to an organization handling millions of dollars in assets. Each of the VP's represents the members in their district, and yet we often do not know how our individual representative voted on issues. Thus they can ignore the people that elected them and vote for their own opinion rather than OUR interests.
Now that we at least have them agreeing to use an established set of rules for meeting conduct, we can use those rules to push for roll call votes and thus have our VPs accountable to US.
