Excerpted from ARRL BoD Meeting Minutes:
---------------------
39. Mr. Stinson, as Chairman, presented his detailed written and visual report 
on the activities and recommendations of the Administration and Finance 
Committee. He observed that while traditional revenues and expenses are roughly 
flat over the last few years, the Board has directed the ARRL into an expanded 
agenda that will require re-evaluation of priorities. 


40. On motion of Mr. Stinson, seconded by Mr. Bodson, it was unanimously VOTED 
that League management is authorized to establish the page count of QST. The 
Board was in recess for luncheon from 12:02 PM until 12:52 PM, reconvening with 
all persons hereinbefore mentioned. 


41. On motion of Mr. Stinson, seconded by Mr. Isely, it was MOVED that the 2002 
budget submission is approved. On motion of Mr. Bellows, seconded by Mr. 
Maxwell, it was VOTED to amend the motion by adding the following resolution: 

WHEREAS, the ARRL management and ARRL Board of Directors are committed to 
effectively and efficiently providing information of interest to all ARRL 
members; and 

WHEREAS, the two primary means of providing information to members are QST 
magazine and the ARRL Web site; and 

WHEREAS, ARRL management and the ARRL Administration & Finance Committee have 
proposed moving Section News and Contest Result line scores to the enhanced 
ARRL Web site in an effort to reduce ARRL operating losses while still 
affording a means of providing that information to ARRL members; and 

WHEREAS, prior to deciding to relocate QST content from QST to the Web site it 
is desirable that members are aware of the reasons for the proposed relocation 
and the enhanced capabilities available on the Web site; and 

WHEREAS, deferring the decision to relocate QST content will afford an 
opportunity to better understand the effect of such an action and investigate 
how best to provide this information and expanded content to members while 
being mindful of our fiscal responsibilities; and 

WHEREAS, deferring the decision to relocate Section News and Contest Result 
line scores will afford an opportunity to evaluate variations and alternatives 
to the proposal. 

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the determination of whether to relocate 
Section News and Contest Line scores from QST to the ARRL Web shall be deferred 
until the July, 2002 Board meeting. 


The question then being on the motion as amended, the same was ADOPTED.
