All, after the last open item was addressed in last week's conference call, here is what should be the final version of our internal rules of procedure. It incorporates a revision of the election process according to the agreement of the call (the way it was recounted to me): Board liaison is voted at the meeting before AGM, other positions at the AGM by the new ALAC. It also has the final text for recall vote and rule amendment majorities (nine votes plus 3/4 quorum) and for point 1.g, taking up suggestions by Siavash, Wendy and Nick. You might note that I am not an ALAC member any more since yesterday, so I am glad to conclude this effort just in time. I think that further changes and enrichments can still be made - for example, we could formalize in writing the process for getting to regional recommendations on ALS applications, or for selecting Nomcom members - but they should go by the amendment procedure that is already included in this edition of the rules.
