[kictanet] Legislation and Discipline & Ethics

I once stood in for a KIF member who could not attend an AGM and voted
by proxy for the member. I do not think KIF sends blanket invitations
to non members to attend their meetings. Please contact the KIF
secretariat and the able directors (the Chair and host of the KIF
secretariat) are easily approachable fellows and would take you in
their wings if you seriously wanted to join the KIF.

Have a great week as your statement "2. Brian, Waudo, Alex - I would
love to hear when you hold elections. For CSK I  do remember very many
years ago when the mantle changed from Shem to Waudo...but nothing new
since then." is the truth that will set us free.

David
