No, but without a working set of orders and rules, things are arbitrary
enough to deal with anti-free members if we need to. Longer term, that
needs addressing, but I failed in trying to sort that out early on. 
Committee members can be removed for working against our aims, although
not too easily either.

No targets afaik, apart from a fuzzy "all computer users" one.  I'm not
sure that there is a recruitment strategy either yet, so please help!
