If someone has sample bylaws that could be submitted for review, it would save some time to post it here tonight for people to be prepared for tomorrow. The same is applicable for any ideas you want to share about any of the above topics: you may post in this thread to inform others of your thoughts, that will allow for a concise discussion tomorrow. ---

Found a couple of websites offering bylaw samples for NPOs. I suppose that bylaw specifics depend on the law of the hosting country, which we will need to define. Search ‘non profit bylaw’ in google, duckduckgo or other. ---

I was not aware. I was trying to find a solution since hangouts is not available anymore? ---

To my knowledge, Apple pushed a silent update to fix it. Zoom since updated the app, too. One can also disinstall zoom after there meeting. ---

Apple fixed it and you can dis install after the meeting. Could you make an exception? Risk is very limited. ---

Given the timing I’m not even sure I can make the meeting as I’m on a client site working on demand based forecasting models. Good luck with it all. ---

My sincere apologies for all those who installed Zoom following this invite. I read the entire article provided by Mark Mitchell and, it seems that a local web host gets installed on MacOS which can reinstall the app when it gets manually unistalled. There is a method described in the article to remove this local host from your machine, as well as the links to download servers the local web host calls to do the reinstall. I regret any inconvenient this may have caused anyone. I will be searching for safer solutions for our online meetings. ---
