Can we limit auction posting only to members of .org.au?
Given that countries like New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Fiji
etc, probably
wont have their own organisations forming, we may have to
admit them as
members into .org.au.

In which case, maybe .org.ANZA [Australia and New-Zealand Area] or similar?

Or does this then defeat the whole purpose of creating
organisations by
country?

See above suggestions

Either way, what i see as happening is, that the organisation
will have a list
of members, only those members can post to .org.* and it will
be upto the
organisations to maintain that list.

Agreed

If Grahame and Sanjay from NZ get want to join in, as an
organisation we'll
have to decide if we can accept them (and that we don't break
any of lugnets
T&C's)

I'd say they should be allowed to join...but who listens to me.

the logic i'm  using is as follows

*In org.au only members can post auction stuff

Agreed

*Members of org.au have to be from Australia

Maybe Australian region [or by request of a certain number of members [say
5] so we can also have 'honory Australians' - eg those who are wiling to
purchase items in the US/Europe and ship to us]

*But given the size/number of people we may allow neighbours
who also have the
same size/number problems?

Agreed

(RIGHT! this calls for immmmmmmmediate discussion!)

So everyone else needs to add their 2 cents [which could be considered as a
down-payment on membership ? :) ]

As for the charter, I'm fine by it, but again if anyone • has any concerns,
say
so.

Prolly should also say in the charter that the auction • traffic must be Oz-
only,
yes?  :-)

Absolutely ,though maybe our friends across the Tasman would • like to be
included since they are so close.(ie New Zealand)

(...) I hear you Ben, it's just that your reply-posting problem makes it kind of like waiting for an echo to finish before replying. By which time something else may also have been said. (...) This idea i like. Perhaps its something we can adopt for (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
