But given the fact that there can be nearly 50% turn-over during a two year
period (and probably much higher for voting delegates) we would be
eliminating the option of a new group to consider a particular change. I
don't see how this can ever be in the best interest of an organization that
is run by convention every two years. In LFS, Seth.
