Welcome to FSANZ, everyone.

Hereby moved, from Tim's proposal (question begged as to "what?"), 
formulated by Rik, seconded by Sue (offlist):

"That the Free Software association of New Zealand, Free Software 
Aotearoa New Zealand (FSANZ), be now formed as per the charter 
http://www.infohelp.co.nz/fsanz-constitution.html DRAFT-1."

"All those in favour, please say aye."

"Noes."

"Abstensions."

"Carried."

"Welcome to FSANZ."


And so concludes our object lesson in Linux democracy.

Software democracy is different to that, so let us know how you'd like 
the FSANZ charter further modified, if at all. Or when you'd like the 
FSANZ Constitution completed, if at all.

Free Software Aotearoa New Zealand now open for voluntary membership.


Yay!
