Error during command authentication.

Error - unable to initiate communication with LISTSERV (errno=10061, phase=CONNECT, target=127.0.0.1:2306). The server is probably not started. Pardon my butting in.  I knew  noting about the pending issue until three days ago, but judging by the reactions on ARLIS-L of several chapters across the country in the past three days,  it looks like a bit of a railroad job...   (?)

Will the Executive Board revisit the issue with more appropriate input from chapters?
If you don't mind my saying so, it looks as if having all chapter dues made payable by chapter members to the central office of ARLIS/NA,  with the equivalent said dues to be forwarded to the chapters, will be a killer to administer.   Is Control of All Incoming Funds really that critical?

Good luck with getting this resolved.                         Bill Walker (aka William Bond Walker)   Canaan NY

Regarding the chapter affiliation agreement, the ARLIS/NY board has major questions and concerns.

We question the premises and implementation of the proposal.

Of particular concern: the implications of enforcing the NA membership requirement and centralizing dues collection.

We call upon the ARLIS/NA board to provide a more substantial rationale, a structure and implementation method consistent with the national bylaws, discussion, and a reasonable timetable.
