Andrew's point is well taken; SDMUG membership's SDCS membership status is 
valid until the dues expire, regardless of additional memberships in other 
organizations.

SDMUG members are SDCS members until such time as their dues run out.  The 
fact that members of SDMUG have voted to effectively disband the SDMUG SIG 
of SDCS and reform SDMUG as its own organization does not dissolve SDMUG 
member's membership status in SDCS.

Any SDCS meeting for the purpose of board elections will be required to have 
a quorum calculated by including the paid membership of SDMUG.  I 
guestimate this number at 70 members.

At this point, I'm honestly tempted to offer to step in as SDCS president.

Written proxies are one thing.  Email proxies should only be considered 
acceptable if they are OpenPGP signed, and the signature is trusted.  It is 
_far_ too easy to fake email, as we should all well be aware.
