Hi all!
 
I, Will L, propose the following changes to the bylaws. This has the potential to auto-pass, has tech no legacy, and changes something recently passed. 
 
Why such a quick change? Spoke to several players and coords on the ground at Blood and Ice, and this was a direction we decided to go. Danava Ally 6 point merit is going to work in a way that the Ventrue Coord (now crowned!) and I agreed upon, and will be mechanically updated in our packets. Mechanics like this aren't binding, so the change was rather easy to make on the floor. It also creates less of an administrative burden on making sure we track who comes back every year.
 
Why the version where it removes the ability to use/own something? We as coords actually do not have the ability to "strip" an approval. If someone gets Sadhana under an agreement we had, and their staff lets them maintain usage under a different system, I can't stop them. The CoH in the packet is by no means actually binding. This makes the fact you have to be the religions outlined in the packet outright binding. 
 
If this passes, rituals are next! I’m a firm believer of you want to use faith fueled paths… have the faith. I thought the ventrue thing was cool, but people used rational arguments (outside this is dumb!) and here we are!
 
Finally, I do like the concept of lets staff run their hand. Historically? Maybe 50 percent actually say no before people goto coords and then get very, very mad when we say no. Now! Can just point at a bylaw. Much like banning PCs teaching chim 5.
