I have queries on YODET as well as one of the individual member applications. Can we have something about the Governance & Membership rules of YODET? In particular: * Do they allow individual members? Institutional members? * What is size of their membership at this time? What proportion of their membership are individuals? * Can individual members assume leadership positions? We need to find out more about the case of Buddha Haldar, as the current APRALO rules state that if an applicant is currently a member of a certified ALS, he/she *cannot* be granted membership. If Dr Haldar is a member of ISOC-Kolkata, we will have to reject his application. Can we therefore cross-check if he is a member of ISOC-Kolkata? satish On Tue, Nov 21, 2017 at 8:42 PM, Anupam Agrawal <anupamagrawal.in@gmail.com<mailto:anupamagrawal.in@gmail.com>> wrote: I also know Buddha.

I would definitely support their individual candidatures.
