IMHO, it needs updating, with the date moving forward to be more relevant.
hm... why would this need adaption? I guess the paragraph was meant to support those people who joined us in the early days, i.e. three months after we started TDF and LibreOffice.
Anyone recalls when the bylaws had been finalized in their current state? How much time between this date and December 31st (as mentioned in the bylaws) did people have?
If we approved the bylaws shortly before or even after December 31st, it makes sense to adapt that date, but if not, I'm a bit undetermined, if we need it at all... the rationale behind it was that people joining TDF early would have a "benefit", IMHO.
