Default RE: EC Votes In Term Limits

Based on comments there, it appears that the original poster doesn't have access to post here. Thanks for posting the letter.

As with most things, the "devil is in the details". I'm assuming that this will require an ammendment to the bylaws, which is why it will go to Leader Members. I'm sure someone here will correct me if this is not correct.

It will be interesting to see just how the change (assuming that is what it takes) will be worded. Will it affect those that are currently serving their third terms (or more) or will the count start once it's in place, if it should pass?

I'm more than a bit interested to see how the voting went among current EC members. When I saw the posting at RCG I checked to see if the minutes from this month's meeting had been posted yet, and they have not. I believe it takes a simple majority to move such a motion out of the EC and put it to the Leader Members.

I have mixed feelings about term limits. It certainly forces a turnover of leadership, but can also result in throwing out the baby with the bathwater. It will be interesting to watch how this unfolds, and how the discussion here plays out.
