Dear all,
in anticipation for our call in a couple of hours, I am forwarding the poll results.
In brief, the WP has expressed in a vast majority that No reference to a specific document should be included in the suggested bylaw text.
The details on the results are below but I believe that once the first question has been answered with a majority of No’s then it is useless to continue the analysis on the rest of the questions.
I suggest we now close this issue as per the polls result and focus on drafting some language that respects the outcome of the poll.
Talk to you in short.
