the admin team is listed at:
http://evolt.org/admin/index.html

dan cody isn't actually subscribed to the admin list, but otherwise i
think that list is up-to-date...

the BoD doesn't truly exist (there's no organization in place),
although we created a temporary one mostly with members from
the US... i believe martin and dan were pres and vice pres, elfur
secretary, and marlene treasurer... most of the admin team was
considered to be on the BoD except for a few oversights and non-
US members, although the plan was to wrap them *all* in...

dan got through much of the NFP paperwork, but i do not know
where it was left...

admin's de facto responsibilities now consist of article approval,
answering email, coming up with ideas to hand off to others, day-to-
day things, and trying to come up with ideas for other stuff...

getting on admin consists of asking, although in the past we've
approached members who have shown interest and a lot of
contribution... being on admin became much less important with
the formation of thesite, and a bit less important with theforum
creation...  leaving admin consists of someone saying, "bye"...

i can't speak to the voting app, i think that's in thesite's hands?

anything else?
