I hope that we can discuss this for a while before making a motion as I think the wording needs some work and it it easier to change it prior to a motion being made.
I think there should be some mention of access to the members section of the AIS Website (when implemented).
Is it our intent to have electronic membership count towards qualifications of an AIS judge? (I would think so )
There is no mention of the inclusion of access to the online iris registration database. (I am intentionally not referencing "irisregister.com" in case we decide to rename it at some later date).
Perhaps a phrase something like: "includes access to such other services and content as may be decided by the AIS BOD". In that light, perhaps we should word it so that we can add OR delete services at the pleasure of the board.
Those are my initial thoughts.

The Strategic Planning committee is proposing a change to the AIS Bylaws for addition of an electronic membership class to Article III, Section 2 of the bylaws. The proposed amendment of the bylaws change is to add class f as follows: (f) electronic membership, which shall include the Bulletin available electronically, and other electronic services as they become available. Electronic membership shall include full membership privileges in the AIS, but does not duplicate privileges for those choosing to have both electronic membership and another class of membership.
