As Avri pointed out to Rosemary, this is not in the Bylaws but in the GNSO Improvement recommendations approved by the Board and currently being implemented in SG and Constituency charters.

Can you point to where the Bylaws (or anything else) say that?  Alan

Right.

So you can be a member of each. Just not a voting member.

I believe the revised Bylaws GNSO provisions require that someone may not vote in more than one SG or Constituency.

The old Bylaws said that an organization could be a member of more than one Constituency. I would have sworn that the new Bylaws explicitly said that you could not participate in multiple SG and had to choose, but I cannot find that clause there. Is there a rule in either SG charter about multiple memberships??
