Last I checked, neither W3ZZ nor N6TR are Directors, nor are they on the 
Membership Services Committee.  W3ZZ has been an invited expert on the 
Membership Services Committee's VHF-UHF Contest and Awards Subcommittee
(along with K1JX, K2UA, AA7A, KM0T and N1ND) but neither he nor Tree get
a vote on the committee.  They are of course free to attempt to persuade 
the committee to their point of view (maybe that's what you mean by "drive 
things,") just as any other ARRL member is.

If no action is taken this weekend, the next ARRL BoD meeting is in January.
