Why update?
The original Constitution was written in 2010 and ratified in an Alliance-wide vote in 2011.
That document has served the Alliance well; however much has changed in over six years.
Several key additions and changes to the 2011 document were proposed; and this was reason enough to refresh the Constitution. Major additions include the structure for GM Vote of Confidence and Recall Vote, as well as the addition of the Executive Committee.
