[LUAU] Another Bylaw to Chew On

Another thing to consider in regards to dues (which I sort of agree that
it may be time to consider, though such consideration shouldn't happen
until we have officers in place and they can take the lead) is that when
money starts changing hands, LUAU needs to actually get tax-exempt status
officially.  It's also probably time to start looking into formally 
incorporating LUAU, so that when/if money starts changing hands, it's 
going through a LUAU account rather than one of the officer's personal 
accounts.

While I agree these things should be considered (and, most important, 
dues need to be *carefully* considered before being implimented, but not 
rejected off hand), I think we need to first focus on getting officers in 
place, so that they can work together to come up with a plan of action 
for the next year as well as a more complete set of bylaws, and then the 
group can vote on that.  I think we need to be careful about tackling too 
much at once.
