AVEN DIGEST for the week of May 8-14

This thread will be de-stickied in four days and replaced with a new one in one week. Its purpose is to keep an index of the important goings-on at AVEN, since it has come to my attention that some people have trouble keeping track.

Media Opportunities

EXCÉLSIOR, a newspaper in Mexico, is looking for Mexican asexuals to interview:

Hallucigenia has suggested reinstating PT elections to improve accountability. It has been suggested that periodic votes of confidence would serve AVEN's current purposes better than elections:

More members have come out in favor of trademarking AVEN, though it has been suggested that due to the cost of registering as a trademark, this should not be done until after AVEN incorporates as a nonprofit:

Instead of adding to AVEN's static content, echidna is going to help put a section for professionals in the Wiki:
