Well, I barely grok what an invariant section is for. Should the
copyright notice be invariant? I'm not sure. I guess I should probably
look a little closer at the GFDL.
I just joined a Montreal* Burning Man list, and we're having our first
F2F this Thursday, and this morning the loudest mouth on the list
posted something to the effect of:
"What do you all think about meeting at St. Elizabeth on corner
St. Catherine and St. Elizabeth instead of meeting at
St. Sulpice... last time I was at Sulpice it was too crowded to
find anyone... I vote for meeting at St. Elizabeth on
thursday instead of St. Sulpice... what do you all think?"**
And I thought to myself: these people need some Shotgun Rules. So I
cleaned out the B.A.D. ruleset, removed the rule about region, and
posted it to the list.
Mark my words: one day the B.A.D. Shotgun Rules will be the Robert's
Rules of Order for anarcho-meetings.
