I agree with all of you, mostly with Evan, and occasionally with myself. I'm unsure about a change to the OP so soon, regardless of the subject matter. We could set a precedent for constantly bickering over what has been agreed on. And, this is what has always been done in the past. I wouldn't disagree though. So far as translations, It is my opinion that this is why we have ALSs to spread the word to our constituencies. I think we should also point out that we should have every document produced translated into Navajo and Hawaiian. However we have finite resources. I agree we should recognize Spanish. I also agree we should recognize Hawaiian, French, Navajo, English, Inuit, Hoosier, and Texan. Just $0.02 aloha, Randy Glass A@L On 7/12/07, Evan Leibovitch <evan@telly.org> wrote:

Errrr... Evan, I pretty much agree with you except that we have an up-coming vote for Chair and Secretariat that our OP won't allow (co-chairs and co-secretariats).
Its really for this time and this time only that I am suggesting these changes. Then I would be 100% agreeable to semi-annual or even annual reviews. You are very right that we cannot allow ourselves to become totally embroiled in administrivia. I also do not think that the changes that I am proposing will cause much "hue and cry" or debate. They seem to be fairly common sense.
Agreed. Ditto for the recognition of Spanish. Unless I'm missing something, both these issues are non-controversial and can probably be done expediently by consensus.
Let's just get on with it. :-)
