As Ewa mentioned: We did have a discussion on the psf-vote list, where all voting members are subscribed, prior to implementing the change. Does that answer your question ? If not, perhaps you could explain what you believe should have been done and wasn't. Changes to bylaws are usually implemented by the board. They can also be put up to vote with the voting members and for larger changes, the board will generally take that approach. In this particular case, this wasn't deemed necessary, as the change only affects the existing sponsor members and there was no opposition on the psf-vote list, nor from the sponsor members themselves.
