p.s. The Wikipedia article points out one problem that I hadn't thought of: Copyright has expired on the original "Robert's Rules of Order," therefore anyone can now publish a book, incorporate as much as he likes of the original, and change it as much as he likes, and call it "Robert's Rules of Order" or something similar. (Just like anybody can publish a dictionary and call it "Webster's.") However, an "official" revision does exist.
