Current Governor Update
As an update as to what governors are up to recently, and to show that your tax dollars are at work, here are the four top topics that the governors are currently discussing - all are major items of CFC activity:
Topic.................................................. ........................Replies.....Views
Membership/Rating Fee Restructuring Committee....................28......... 266
CYCC Qualification Rules .................................................. ..49........ 585
Motion 2011-B ( One Membership Fee ) - Developments ...........3........... 52
Tournament Bidding Conflict of Interest ( and Generally ) .........13......... 183
Generally, on average, 1/3 ( 20/60 ) of the governors visit the CFC Discussion Boards ( Governors' Discussion Board, and members' CFC Chess Chat Forum - the stats are combined ) daily.
The next on-line meeting of the Governors will be the Winter Quarterly Meeting, likely to be held in mid-January, over the course of a full week.
If you have issues you want CFC to deal with, post them on the members' CFC Chess Chat Forum, or contact your local governor:
