[Linux-aus] How the council breached their constitution - membersregister request section 7

[Lyndsey Jackson]

Can we have the constitution updated so that I don't have to feel concerned
that this man, who I don't know can stop claiming a right to my private
contact details?

That seems less work for us, and more beneficial for me as an individual
than me cancelling my membership and demanding my information is deleted.
But I am happy to do the work to go either way.

And can we have clarity on the position of the org on this? As a past chair
of EFA happy to help find a lawyer/other people to speak to.

In my experience constitutions have some holes, because, of course they do,
and it is a red flag when people start to poke in them for their own gain.

Thanks,

Lyndsey
