Re: DIS: Offer to resign as Promotor
I sent you a rough draft (privately, because it probably has errors).

Re: DIS: Offer to resign as Promotor
Thank you so much! It isn't possible to deputize for an office without taking it over per se, but what I can do is create an Agency with you as Agent. I'll do that in a minute.
