Well, the 2nd ISA (International Smalltalk Association) newsletter is
on it's way out the door.  If you still haven't recieved the first 
newsletter (and asked to receive it before 1/20/91) - or would like to
recieve the newsletter, please drop me a line with your surface mail 
address and I'll correct whatever is wrong.
 
Here are the concepts that will be embodied in the ISA bylaws:
  
General
o  The association will always be bound by applicable laws.
o  The international level is primarily concerned with organizing 
   the regional groups, providing services for the regional groups, 
   and coordinating data back from the regional groups.
o  Minutes of the International meetings shall be distributed 
   to all members.
o  ISA should not be affiliated with anyone, but could 
   become so.
o  The international level has the right to review the 
   regional charters and revoke ISA sponsorship.
 
 Membership
o  That ISA does have dues, currently they are $0.00.
o  Membership is open to individuals, not corporations.
o  Membership in the Association does not preclude members 
   from being affiliated with other organizations.
o  We need a specific mechanism for declaring membership.
o  Regional members are also international members.
 
Officers
o  Officers consist of President, Vice President, Secretary, 
   and Treasurer.
o  In the absence of the president the order is as specified above.
o  President conducts meetings, and is the chairman of 
   the executive committee.
o  Nominations will be open to anyone, including self nomination.
o  Officers shall be elected annually.
o  Vacant offices shall be appointed by the executive committee 
   and keep that office until the next election.
o  Officers have the right to vote, and all other normal 
   membership privileges.
o  Any Officer or chairman can be removed from office by 
   the executive committee for failing to show up at meetings.
o  Officers are members of the executive committee.
