Your understanding of new member admission is correct, however, these
decisions are made by majority vote, so I still have little individual say.
The problem we face in HOT on this issue is getting enough members to
approve new intakes rather than the actions of individuals.

I still fail to see how HOT members could subvert the OSMF, but perhaps I
lack imagination.

Cheers, Joseph
