Should we specify a two-year term? If we don't, doesn't that imply that RA
terms begin on 1 Aug?

positive. What does the committee think?
The section that covers the SC also covers the RAs. Should we modify that
paragraph slightly at the same time? Perhaps this:
"Regional Assistants will be elected by the CCs within each region to
provide guidance and support to the CCs in that region. This election will
occur no later than two (2) months after the SC election, and RAs shall
serve the same term as the SC. Regional Assistants, together with any
technical assistants appointed by the SC, shall be known collectively as
the GAGenWeb Support Team. Members of the Support Team will have no
governing power, but shall have responsibilities as outlined in the P&P. "
Let me hear from you -- we need to get this one done and voted on :-)
