Summary

  • Adds a voluntary withdrawal provision to the Statutes (English and French), allowing any member organisation (except the IMG) to withdraw by written notice to the Bureau
  • Simplifies the Internal Regulations by removing the old GA-validation resignation process and cross-referencing the Statutes instead

Changes

  • statutes.md — new section heading + voluntary withdrawal paragraph
  • statuts.md — same in French
  • internal-regulations.md — removed old resignation process, added Statutes cross-reference

Closes #34
