Knowledge of the rule change could ultimately be helpful to mosh's efforts.

It looks like it should be easier for mosh plaintiffs to reach other unitholders and for for said unitholders to participate in voting decisions about suing jpm, getting a new trustee and so forth. I wonder if this is being fully looked into/utilized?

Costs are presumably a factor in unitholder communications as well as "beating the bushes" looking for lost unitholders, this eliminates cost, so maybe obtaining a per se technical quorum moves up as a greater possibility. This would be basically empowering to mosh unitholders if such a web site were put up, I would say.

"[...]

SUMMARY: We are adopting amendments to the proxy rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that provide an alternative method for issuers and other persons to furnish proxy materials to shareholders by posting them on an Internet Web site and providing shareholders with notice of the availability of the proxy materials. Issuers must make copies of the proxy materials available to shareholders on request, at no charge to shareholders.
The amendments put into place processes that will provide shareholders with notice of, and access to, proxy materials while taking advantage of technological developments and the growth of the Internet and electronic communications. Issuers that rely on the amendments may be able to significantly lower the costs of their proxy solicitations that ultimately are borne by shareholders. The amendments also might reduce the costs of engaging in a proxy contest for soliciting persons other than the issuer. The amendments do not apply to business combination transactions. The amendments also do not affect the availability of any existing method of furnishing proxy materials.

DATES: Effective Date: March 30, 2007. Compliance Date: Persons may not send a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to shareholders prior to July 1, 2007.
