Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: waiting list

[Carol Agate (carolagate]

Thanks, Richard. Doesn't that link include the bylaws you're referring to 
sending, or do I have someone else's request mixed up with your reply? If the 
bylaws are other than the link, yes, I would like to see them.

Great name, BLAH.
