Folks

No organization wants to do things like extend dates, but we had to do it at Marconi last year. It's usually practical.

Because this came from one of our chapters, who cited a reasonable purpose (difficulty in holding a chapter meeting on time), I urge extending say 72 hours. There's every reason to be helpful to our chapters when it's not a big issue.

Unless there's a major issue - such as a meeting already scheduled to review things tomorrow - it's good to be ersponsive.

It would be right to make sure that whatever is done is made clear on the appropriate part of the website.

This is for petitions for nominations, not voting.

I hope so, as we needed some time at ISOC Bulgaria to come with a decision on this case, and the time was just now, which may be after 15:00 UTC.
