I think Daniel's motion does constitute an amendment.  I will
recognize it as such.  Does anyone wish to second Daniel's approach?

If it is not seconded, we will proceed with the original motion.  If
it is seconded, we will then need to vote on whether the amended
motion supercedes the original motion, or whether the majority would
prefer to vote on the original motion.  We would then vote on the
contents of the winning version of the motion, unless there are
further motions to amend.

If Tony wishes to propose the amendment Don suggested, then I'll play
it by ear :-)  If both Don and Daniel were to consider such a motion
friendly to their respective motions, then I'd suggest we consider
each of their motions so modified.
