    Hi Thomas,

    Can a discussion about the Round Table By-laws Task Force (RTCA STF) be added to the agenda? The first meeting I will be involved in will be in April. It may be before or after this meeting. I would like to have a good sense of the Executives' ideas about the by-laws template and the standardized dues proposal. I may be able to answer some questions if the task for meets before then.
