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.
