Well, therein lies a major problem.  As most of the smaller registrars lack 
the resources to fly from one continent to another every three months, we 
really can't have major and important actions proposed and voted at an 
inperson meeting.  I am sure that the entire membership was not and could 
npot have been made aware of this and given an opportunity to vote.

In fact, at the meeting in VA, Mike P. assured me that this type of thing 
would not happen.

Well, I don't agree with you here. My conversations with interested parties 
show the opposit.
