Untrue.  Whilst I concur this last response was rude and unhelpful, a
number of us have attempted to explain to David why the issues he has
raised aren't valid but he's basically chosen to ignore that entirely.
He's raising issues about a constitution that is currently invalid,
requires replaying of every constitutional change approved for several
years and still doesn't address the financial year issue.

Mary, John et al have explained this quite carefully and laid out the
proposed changes.  If people don't like the changes or the approach they
can vote against them at the SGM.

Regards

James Turnbull
