I have recently read the bylaws article XVI (about how to amend

Like most of the articles, it's pretty goofy, or at least undemocratic,
in that it doesn't address how a state project is to determine whether
it wants to sponsor an amendment. It seems to me it's up to the state
coordinator to decide whether a state project wishes to co-sponsor a
proposed amendment -- a project's wishes are to be posted to USGenWeb-
All, and that means by the state coordinator, I suppose, so whatever
she wishes to post or not to post is what the state project wishes,
whatever the opinions of the other members might be.
Elaine, will you please let us know whether and what you decide to post
there about the currently proposed amendments?

Hi John,
I would never make such an arbitrary decision. A few of the other states
have had quick, informal votes and then the SC stepped forward and spoke
for the state. We can discuss them on this list and have a vote if anyone
thinks Idaho should sign our name to one of them.
