Can someone SGML this properly (for
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/staff.html)

Otherwise I'm just going to put <verbatim> around it and commit it for
http://www.freebsd.org/internal/ as that is the extent of my skills.

    After reviewing all the votes, I have found there to be 123 valid
    votes.  118 were cast in favor and 5 were cast in opposition.  The
    bylaws pass.

    I certify that the following is a faithful and true copy of the
    bylaws, as enacted.

    ---- Begin Bylaws ----

    Bylaws:
    o Active committers have made a commit to the tree in the last 12 months.
    o Core consists of 9 elected active committers.
    o Core elections are held every 2 years, first time September 2000.
    o Core members and committers may be ejected by a 2/3 vote of core.
    o If the size of core falls below 7, an early election is held.
    o A petition of 1/3 of active committers can trigger an early election.
    o All elections will be run as follows:
       Core appoints and announces someone to run the election.
       1 week to tally active committers wishing to run for core.
       4 weeks for the actual vote
       1 week to tally and post the results.
       Each active committer may vote once in support of up to nine nominees.
       New core team becomes effective 1 week after the results are posted.
       Voting ties decided by unambiguously elected new core members.
    o These rules can be changed by a 2/3 majority of committers if at least 50%
      of active committers cast their vote.
