It is extremely unlikely that any English court would think so. The phrase "a 2/3 majority vote of active contributors" would be understood in its natural way, namely that 2/3 (or more) of all active contributors must vote in favour of the change. If there was to be a quorum then the terms would say so. However changing "active contributors" to "all active contributors" ought to dispel any shadow of a doubt on that point and does not read unnaturally, so I'd suggest it as a change. NB: we've been asked to suggest changes to the CT's if we think they are unclear. I cannot remember whether you caught that. -- Francis Davey _______________________________________________ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
