This has been the plan whenever we've discussed it.  The articles of association are for our use and are intended to be updated freely without any legal weight, just the weight of our belief in the system we are creating.

In theory, since the Articles of Association can change, and they are actually what govern sudo room, so it may be better not to submit them.... Although the latest version should be on the wiki, I don't think this is relevant for the state and federal paperwork.

Yes, I agree. We need not, and should not, submit our Articles of
Association to the state. The 3500 refers to articles of
incorporation. Most organizations don't have "articles of
association". It's just a weird anarchist thing that we did over a
year before we became any sort of legal entity. :)

If it hasn't happened already, we should also gain consensus on the bylaws and articles [of incorporation] before submitting them. I believe Yar said we never submitted the bylaws because we never gained consensus. Is there an expedited process for getting a decision on this? In theory, this is due on Nov 7, although I've heard the penalties for delay are not severe.

Consensus was never really the issue. Laziness was the issue. There
were a number of Sudoroom meetings last year where consensus was clear
about the direction we wanted to go, but it was just never
implemented. If we can have something ready to read on Wednesday and
mail on Thursday, that's icing on the cake, but I say just do what we
need to do for now, including mailing it before Wednesday if need be.

when we do 501c3 so it's just an interim document.
