Confusion solved, it seems WMUK lapsed my membership without notification. So I didn't receive notices as I'm apparently no longer a member.

The old system of an alert at the bottom of the monthly newsletter was *not fit for purpose.* We will now have a much better system with our new database that w will send proper direct email reminders.

Please note that the board of trustees had the option to rectify this rather easily, even last minute, as they have the right to waive membership fees for individual members: https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Membership/Rules Best, Lodewijk 2014-08-07 12:26 GMT+01:00 Gordon Joly &lt;gordon.joly(a)pobox.com&gt;om>:

I must say that it is odd that if there is realization that a whole bunch of memberships is about to lapse, nobody sends (even manually) a bunch of reminders out... 2014-08-07 12:10 GMT+01:00 Jon Davies &lt;jon.davies(a)wikimedia.org.uk&gt;uk>:

A notice about your membership status has been automatically included at the bottom of every newsletter sent out by WMUK in the past 12 months at least. For example the last one I have saved said: "Date of end of membership term: 2015-10-02 | Your Membership Status: Current" (I will check that as I think it should say 2014) Jon has already indicated that moving forwards specific emails about membership expiry will be sent as soon as the technology allows.

Not since I rejoined WMUK in February 2014. There seems to be some confusion about my requests for communication (or not to receive communication) and also my data held an WMUK. I am now aware of what happened. Case closed! Gordo On 07/08/14 14:58, Dhaval S. Vyas wrote:

It may take a little while to get the minutes typed up and released, but a quick summary on the motions is that all passed apart from the last one on the agenda which was defeated.

The Tellers should have issued the results, some of which required 75% and some 50% of the votes when they were ready to quote figures. The meeting was running late. The Chair had call the meeting to order at the end, since the business was not complete. Having said that the Tellers did excellent work under pressure, and I am not suggesting any errors in the outcome of the voting. I am simply saying that the reporting (to the meeting) was rushed.
