Hi James,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We did indeed lodge the
constitutional changes with the Dept of Fair Trading within the
one-month time period.

The wiki not being updated was a simple oversight. I spent a bit of
time today updating pages, making things more clear and marking pages
which were no longer current (for instance, we had the constitution
published on two separate pages). The published constitution is now
up-to-date, and can be found at
http://wiki.slug.org.au/activeconstitution

Cheers,
Sridhar
