<strong>Notification of membership vote regarding change to bylaws</strong>
<small>(07/09/2007)</small>
<blockquote>The Board is proposing a change to the GNOME Foundation
bylaws to allow the directors to determine the length of the next
Board term when elections are called. An <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/2007-August/msg00025.html">earlier
proposal</a> was discussed on foundation-list in August, and this <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/2007-September/msg00017.html">modified
proposal</a> is a result of legal advice to the Board, suggesting
that we change the bylaws to provide flexibility in
future.</blockquote>
<blockquote>The voting period will begin on 2007-09-28 and end on
2007-10-12.</blockquote>
