I’ll see what comments I get, and either change it to a limit of 1 per country, 
or let the limit of 2 per sub-region be enough.

I suspect that we can’t legally prevent the registered members from changing 
the bylaws, but we can make it clear that that would be against the intent of 
the bylaws.

We allow Directors standing for re-election to vote for themselves, so why not 
allow a Director to vote against his own removal?  The requirement to recuse 
oneself for conflict of interest applies only to actions as a Director, not to 
actions as a Registered Member, even though the same person fills both roles.

This should be “an elected Director may be removed …”.  I’ll fix it.

I think it’s clear enough that the remaining Directors would have the right to 
fill the casual vacancies in terms of Bylaws article 13.14.
