In our on-going attempts to make WDI a better, more future-proof organization, your friendly neighborhood WDI board would like to propose some changes to how board members are elected, how long our terms are, and how many terms we can serve consecutively. These changes require a vote by the membership. The two PDF files that follow are a summary of the changes, and a copy of the full bylaws with the changes marked.
