Vicki is going to bring a few paper copies as well. Please read through the bylaws as they have been posted for quite some time found at: http://kudos.koha.org/?s=bylaws - The Mission and Section 5 membership are changing, but those are included in this email.

o Membership should be for installations of Koha in North America
So KUDOS will mean "Koha Users but not Developers Of Software"? That's disappointingly divisive. On the web page: SECTION 5.2 Qualifications. For Voting Membership: any North American library currently using or implementing the Koha ILS as its primary circulation program and or catalog. For Non-voting Membership: any individual or for-profit company that develops or supports the Koha ILS A tech worker co-op is not a library, not an individual and not a for-profit company. Can't it join at all? I feel it would be better if KUDOS was a multistakeholder cooperative but I don't know if Pennsylvania has such things.
