That was a mistake because April 1, 2015 could trigger a dues increase if both sides agreed to exchange early openers. But you never fail to disappoint in your complete ignoring of everything else Hitimefurl got wrong.

I'm not ignoring his mistake. I acknowledged it earlier, when I said several claimed that dues could increase 6 months prior to Sec 6. Per the DPA constitution, they certainly can not.

Several claim that dues can increase 6 months prior to Sec 6, which you dispute. You claim that dues can not be increased prior to July 1, 2015, correct?
I agree with you in that regard. But only if it's related to Sec 6. A dues increase prior to April 1, 2015 would be possible if a merger were announced. Which I am fairly certain you also acknowledged.
Thanks for the conversation.
