The announcement date of the vote proposal is the beginning date of the seven-day (minimum) posting and Member discussion period. (Certain exceptional vote types have longer discussion periods.

You are welcome to discuss the vote, but I am unwilling to alter the current plan. I have worked with the company the components will be purchased from, and I have installed these brands many times. I am volunteering to complete the installation myself for free, and I have chosen components that I am confident in and will have no problems installing. If the membership decided to go in a different direction, they would need to run a separate vote with alternate terms.

'''Just a note here about my withdrawal of my (gary newhouse) co-sponsorship.  After consideration and in light of the other votes pending, I think this ill advised. We should simply ask the General Operations Team to repair or replace the screen as part of its responsibility for this general area.  The sound system could be enhanced by much less expensive or even free methods.  In my previous life i outfitted over 60 classrooms and multiple board conference rooms with systems much more complicated than this (and several smaller rooms like this).  I'm not volunteering to do this alone, just citing my background from which I shoot off my mouth.  Plus the dates in the vote make no logical sense.
