Just to make sure this is clear, it is possible to resign from Linux Australia
at any time under the present arrangements. At present this is done by emailing
the Secretary (secretary at linux.org.au) and stating that you wish to resign
membership. It takes effect immediately on receipt and you will get a reply
confirming such.

I don't intend this mail to negate Kathy's point! Just making sure that no one
is left with the impression that in the current situation one cannot resign
one's membership if one so wants.
