<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I am very puzzled by this email. This work was authorized by the Board. We have been working on it since November of last year. I provided the Board with an initial draft of the revisions on December 2, 2013
and a more recent draft on July 20, 2014. I also provided two interim drafts to the</span>
<span style="color:#1F497D">Bylaws and Trademark Policies Subcommittee of the DefCore Committee (and copied the entire Defcore Committee) in March and April. You were a recipient of all of these emails. I have discussed the issue at several Board meetings,
specifically the need to have the revisions approved by Individual Members with a minimum of 25% of the Individual Members voting. Given past turnout, it appears likely that this number of Individual Members will only be available for a vote during the annual
director elections. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Consequently, if the Foundation does not proceed with an amendment to the bylaws during the 2015 election cycle, we will probably not be able to amend the bylaws to implement the new DefCore standards or the
revised approach to trademark usage until the 2016 Board elections in January 2016. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I don’t think that email is an effective vehicle for this discussion on this issue and suggest that we schedule a call for the DefCore Committee to discuss the appropriate approach on the bylaws. Please tell
me if you want me to have my assistant set it up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the best possible draft available to the community for their comments. I sent it to the CoChairs of DefCore Committee so they could determine how best to get those comments. Just a reminder that we need to have the draft ready for the vote of the Individual
Members which would normally mean that it would be voted on approval at the September 22 meeting. If not, we will need to hold a special Board meeting. We need to get community input prior to Board review and then we need to get Board approval (which may
require some additional changes and more community input). We will have a significant challenge with the timeline unless we get DefCore Committee comments this week.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Given this timeline, I recommend against tying the bylaws review to the DefCore Process Appendix. The Appendix is not part of the Bylaws, but the Bylaws need to be amended in order to approve the Appendix. Since
the revised Bylaws permit the Board to adopt any process, the Appendix does not need to be drafted prior to approval of the revised bylaws. Ultimately, the Appendix is a document which the DefCore needs to get approved by the Board. I am concerned that
the DefCore Committee continues to have discussions about basic issues and this discussion precludes drafting an Appendix now.
