Personally I've voted yes.
The main reasons being that the constitution is realatively unchanged apart from a few point of clarification.
I feel that the powers given to the executive are necessary to ensure quick and effective resolutions to what are minor issues for the vast majority of the time.
I don't really think that the majority of the FRA's business needs more than one person to deal with it and also if there is something fundementally wrong that the executive do there is always a failsafe built in which means by getting 10% (as I recall and I'm not about to look it up again) of the memership to request a vote on the issue it has to be put to the members.
I don't find the constitution unusual for this type of organisation in any way and have to say that the more people involved in a decision the longer it takes.
Personally I've taken the decision not to be involved in the running of the FRA as I do not have the time to do anything effectively. Unless someone wants to tell be that axe/flipper combos or four wheel drive robots aren't allowed anymore then I don't really have any issues with what the FRA decides. As far as rules goes it's about having everyone on a level playing field and at the end of the day each of my/our robots will turn up to events complying with them. If I really object to a rule change I'll do what the constitution says and muster up enough people who agree with me and put it to the vote.
