==== Approved Amendments ====
Recommendation 1, lowering the requirements for amending the bylaws, was adopted without change.
Recommendation 2, requiring that central committee members live in California and be registered Libertarian if eligible, was adopted with three amendments: to add a proviso that the change would take effect at the end of the convention, to restructure the list of requirements to make the intent clear, and to make explicit that life members retain their membership.
Recommendation 3, changing the schedule for the Bylaws Committee to report, was adopted without change.
Recommendation 4, making dues sharing 50% in all cases, was adopted without change.
Recommendation 7, changing Judicial Committee procedures, including requiring a written report and creating the position of JC alternate, was adopted with two changes: to leave unchanged the rule that two JC members may approve considering a case and to remove a phrase about the amount of detail in the report; the language was then further amended to require that in cases involving suspension of membership, if the member requests it, the JC's report be reported to the next convention in executive session.
Recommendation 10, dealing with voluntary resignations of membership, was adopted without change.
''Recommendations 5, 6, 8, and 9 were not adopted.''
