editBy-laws draft & Membership management
editFeedback: by-laws to be amended following a vote of the members Membership management: use a membership request form instead of subscription on the Meta page Organizing online votes (on Meta or through other platforms) instead of voting during the meetings, as the members belong to different time zones and it's difficult to gather them in one meeting
