Perhaps I missed something, but I can't find anything in the By Laws dealing with the conduct of Officers, Directors, or Vice Directors. Could the EC perhaps look at the possibility of setting some ethical standards as well as a procedure for enforcing those standards? This whole situation sucks. The Board is in effect being held hostage by one (hopefully only one) individual who is unable to exercise good judgment. 73. Jim, W6CF W5JBP@aol.com wrote:
Dear fellow board members.
Due to the fact that some of our confidential information got out to people outside of the board family, I must restrict any further information about our positions on 5 MHz to the Executive Committee. This is serious. We have people in various positions with the government that are our friends and don't mind keeping us informed. This type of leak could cost careers and certainly damage our ability to posture ourselves in the future.
Also, it is just not good to reveal our fall back plans when we are about to go into negations with the NTIA in two weeks. As you should know, Chris and I will be meeting with them as soon as a meeting can be arranged sometime between the 17th and the end of that week. I orally briefed the board during my remarks in our July meeting. If any of you need further up dates I will be glad to discuss it over the phone, but nothing more in e-mail about what we are doing to "fix" this problem with the NTIA.
