It's not commentary -- it was a limited-duration provision, and, consistent with WSFS practice, it will disappear from the Constitution. I have a draft of the 2006 Constitution (that is, the version as of the end of the 2006 meeting that will be used by the 2007 Worldcon), and the provision has been removed.
The limited-duration provision adopted by this year's Business Meeting is a bit more complicated. While the provision itself is only one sentence long, I and the Secretary have decided that it's prudent to include what will happen to the Constitution should the contemplated action happen in 2009 or 2010, including the exact wording that would replace the two new sections of the Constitution. Otherwise, there's a good chance we'd get to the 2009 Business Meeting and not be certain what we would be voting to restore.
