Subject: Acka: Proposal 2343

Proposal 2343
That Was The Month That Was
Alfvaen (Aaron Humphrey)

This is a Modest proposal.

Amend Rule 255, "Vacationing", as follows:

After the sentence "If the duration is not specified when they go
on vacation, it is assumed to be 14 days.", insert the following
sentence(delimited by LEHRER):

LEHRER
If the duration is specified as a range of time, e.g.  "next week"
or "October", the expected duration shall extend to the end of said
range[i.e., until the end of the specified calendar week, or October
31st, in the above cases].
LEHRER

{{[ The next sentences in the Rule will trim this to fit in the 2-60 day
range, in case anyone was worried... ]}}
