It's at http://www.linux.ie/legal/constitution.php which is linked off the
legal page which you access by clicking the Legal Info link at the top of
the home page.

Kathryn was only asking if people could come to the AGM - she specifically
said that they could leave when it came time to vote - so if those who want
to come simply subscribe to the list, then they are members.

Interestingly however, the constitution is silent on the issue of who may or
may not attend an AGM, perhaps because it is implicit that the AGM of a
society is for members of that society. Practically speaking, I somehow
doubt that anyone's going to stand up, point the finger, and say "You -
you're not a member - get out!" (unless maybe it's one of those terrible
people who take BOFH and ASR seriously).
