My apologies that I had to drop after the first 30 minutes.  

Mark, thanks very much for driving the discussion around the proposed changes to the Bylaws.

Best,
Eileen

Hi Mark

What might help clear up some confusion is a Change-Pro Redline rendering of the changes between the original version and the latest proposed version.

I think the TC were really struggling with having to combine the v15 and
v18 changes in their head.

Thanks,
Mark.

This second set of changes reflects comments raised at the last meeting of the committee, particularly by Mark McLoughlin on behalf of the Technical Committee.  Version 18 has not yet been approved by the committee.  These changes are meant to reflect the need to move from a "module" based method of determining when the trademark can be used to a more flexible method which can be agreed upon by the Technical Committee and the Board. As I said to Mark and I think that he passed on to the Technical Committee, the reasons for the DefCore and these revisions are as follows:
