It has been moved by Mike Peterson and seconded by Linda Blum-Barton that
the Advisory Board establish a special fact finding study group to perform
specific tasks as outlined in the motion.

The motion is numbered 07-12 and is now open for discussion. If you have no
discussion, please advise by stating "no discussion".

Motion 07-12 is as follows:


"I move the Advisory Board establish a special fact finding study group
which would:

1] Review and document current financial laws relative to non-profit
organizations such as USGenWeb. For example, incorporation registration,
unincorporated non-profit registration, 501(c)3 status, status quo and so on
and what each would mean to this organization as possible
effects/non-effects of possible needed future funding.

2] Develop a list of possible financial paths USGenWeb could pursue, or not,
with potential advantages and disadvantages.

3] Provide a report to the Advisory Board (without recommendations) of
findings.

4] The group will have five members who have demonstrated experience in
organizational financial management.

5] The Advisory Board will recruit and select initial and subsequent group
members.

6] The group will structure itself and the group leadership and assignments.

7] The group will provide reports of tasks, accomplishments, and plans to
the Advisory Board every month."
