:::Kyle's follow-up:
::::This obviously goes somewhat beyond the scope of this particular vote, so I won't belabor the point, but as a general comment, while the above explanations tell me about how the group would like to categorize the rules, it doesn't tell me anything about how the rules interact with each other in a legal sense. If a policy conflicts with the bylaws, do the bylaws supersede? If we want bylaws to be changed less often, and policies more often, is there anything in our rules which promotes that? Again, this is a fight for another day, but I'd just like to plant the seed here. If we want to create a distinction between "Policies" and "Bylaws," that distinction is only really meaningful if it the two are actually legally different in some way (such as: votes for policies have a lower quorum requirement, votes to change bylaws require a supermajority, etc.). Otherwise, all we've really done is arbitrarily chopped up our bylaws onto different pages based on how "big" we think the rules are.
