Yes, as I said in my reply to Lawrie, the AuDA rules require a legal
entity and the org.au rules require that it not be an individual.

Is my original statement sufficient?  Or do we need more detail?

Thanks for the offer - I was going to try to draft something tonight.  I
started on trying to just note modifications to the Model Rules, but it
was getting out of hand.  There is a list of stuff that must be addressed
in the rules but things that we don't define can default to the
appropriate part of the Model Rules if that is easier.

We only need three members on the committee (I think).  And only 5
members altogether.
