During this 7-day lame duck period, no votes may be made on proposals.

 ## Becoming a member
 
-It is not required to be a part of the HFTT in order to work on projects. In fact, it's quite the opposite: in order to find a list of projects on which to volunteer, one need only send a message (e.g. an email, slack DM, etc) to the leaders of individual projects. Likewise, individuals may freely contribute ideas and analysis of technical proposals by taking part in the HF Tech Proposal (HFTP) process commentary. However, the HFTT exists as the body empowered to ratify proposals and supervise projects to completion.
