| Recently the membership at large voted on whether the Foundation could offer a modified membership agreement o government agencies who were | |
| legally prohibited from signing our standard agreement because it stipulates the state of New York as the governing law. | |
| We are please to announce that the motion was carried, with 96% voting in favor of the motion.<br><br> | |
| We will now proceed with engaging with these government agencies, and look forward to their contributions to our community. Thanks | |
