What do you mean, "as it stands"?  As it stands right now, there's nothing that says Corporations can't propose.  I will vote against any proposal that says Corporations can't propose.  It's an unnecessary restriction.

And unless you're planning to repeal r578 (which I'd also vote against), you can't change M-Tek with a proposal.  That would change its charter, the methods for which are regulated in r578.

It's not contested.  The current ruling is that Wonko isn't the Wealthy Bastard.  Wonko has appealed, but Wonko and I now appear to be in negotiation.

I'll wait until I see this proposal.  I distrust sweeping change, especially since in that belated judgment you gave you said "I don't care about the details."
