Is this a case of a cure for a nonexistent problem?
Who is linking to What besides the obvious.
Are there any real life examples of Intentional linking of the
USGenWeb logo to other than USGenWeb?
And did the host person refuse to correct it because it was not a
mandated rule?
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. What is broke? Something besides
common sense?

P.S. is the IX net server working fine again? Last I heard it was
chaos, and I saw no report of its resolution-- I suppose no news is
good news in this case, but... if the hacking was solved we could all
learn a bit. If not, well . . .

The following is a Bylaw amendment that is looking to be added to
the
election this summer. The state of WV has sponsored it and it will
need a 5 state sponsorship to be added to the ballot. There is quite
a bit of discussion taking place on the state coordinator list. If
our CCs feel they would like to sponsor this amendment we would need
to weigh in on the matter and decide as a whole to add MTGenWeb to the
sponsorship. We are in no means under obligation to do so, I am
merely presenting the opportunity if you all would wish to do so.
Thanks much,
Karen

To: state-coord(a)rootsweb.com, usgenweb-all(a)rootsweb.com,
board(a)rootsweb.com
As per Article XVI. B of the USGenWeb Project bylaws, the WVGenWeb
Project,
with the support of the majority of the WVGenWeb CCs, sponsors the
following
amendment to the USGenWeb Bylaws:
Currently ARTICLE IX. A. reads:
IX. GUIDELINES/STANDARDS FOR WEBSITES/MEMBERS
A. All websites shall include prominent display of The USGenWeb
Project logo
on the home page. A state project logo may be required depending on
the
guidelines/standards in effect for that state.
The corrected proposed change to read:
IX. GUIDELINES/STANDARDS FOR WEBSITES/MEMBERS
A. All websites shall include prominent display of The USGenWeb
Project logo
on the home page. If linked, this logo may only be linked to the
USGenWeb
National site. A state project logo may be required depending on the
guidelines/standards in effect for that state. If linked, a state
project
logo may only be linked to the appropriate state site.
Please post this in the proper locations so that other states will
have a
chance to cosponsor this bylaws change.

Article XVI. B. states that for a bylaws amendment to be placed on the
ballot during the annual election there must be 5 co-sponsors (of
which WV
counts as one) of the proposed change.
You will find the proposed amendment at
http://usgenweb.org/volunteers/notice.shtml Any state that wants to
join
WVGenWeb in co-sponsoring this amendment, please notify your
regional AB
representatives, Tina Vickery as RAL or myself as NC and we'll get
your
state listed as co-sponsor.
