<div dir="ltr" class="">Susan, thanks, your changes are completely responsive to the points I made earlier. I think the notion of testing participation starting at the Adopter level is extremely interesting and I look forward to hearing opinions from others

Great feedback.  Thanx.
<div class="">Yes - one thing Bill Lee pointed out last year was that the difference between Adopter and Supporter was basically … nothing.</div>
<div class="">So I thought we needed to make a distinction, and participation in the test program seemed like a significant perk.</div>
<div class="">Making it only available to Adopters seemed like an good idea… we’ll see if others agree.  :)</div>

<div dir="ltr" class="">Susan, thanks, this is very good. I want to note a couple of things just for clarity. I don't have any particular suggestions for changes, just wanting to be clear on some changes you seem to be suggesting and possibly an omission:
<div class="">1 - I'm not recalling completely our policy, but I think at some point we decided Promoters could nominate individuals for elected office. Recall the person</div>
<div class="">     person holding office needn't be on the Board. Whatever, it's a point worth thinking about</div>

</div>
<div class="">2 - We should be clear about what level has voting rights in WGs</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">3 - In the past there's been no requirement for a minimum level of membership to participate in testing programs, so what you're proposing is a change.</div>
<div class="">     I happen to think it's an interesting idea, just pointing out it is a change</div>
