Proposals for the 2000 RAFFLE Competition Committee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These were submitted with no real continuity across them.  Most are OK, but
a few conflict each other.  In the event this happens, I've noted what the
outcome would be.  Note that the number beside each proposal is used only to
group related proposals and not to indicate which section of the rules they
affect.

A minimum of five responses needed to be mailed in for the voting to count.
To pass, a proposal needed to carry 50%+1 of the overall voting and 50%+1
of the Exec. Comm. votes.

-
- Results on each proposal and comments on future plans are indicated in
- the line before each proposal/plan.  Voting on each proposal is indi-
- cated as For-Against-Undecided.  (The numbers in brackets indicating
- how the Exec. Comm. voted.)
