Is there a Chapter or CCA policy regarding MINIs versus Minis?

MINIs - the current incarnation (all upper case letters) - are owned by BMW, and (I assume) should be a part of our BMWCCA family, and recognized as such at all Chapter program events, et cetera.

Minis - the original incarnation (upper & lower case letters)- were not at all connected with BMW.

My question is, does CCA or the Chapter officially or unofficially welcome any Mini into our fold as we would welcome any MINI?

I'd welcome a "corporate" response, please; otherwise I expect that as motorsports enthusiasts most - if not all - of us would welcome any Mini or MINI to any of our events.

Thanks for your response.
