------------------------------
honorary: adjective
1.
given for honor only, without the usual requirements, duties,
privileges, emoluments, etc.:
The university presented the new governor with an honorary degree.

Using the word _honorary_ means that the process is _not_ bound by the
constitution ('the usual requirements'), because holding an honorary
membership doesn't give any of the actual benefits ('privileges') of
membership.
Unless the constitution specifically mentions honorary memberships and
defines rules for granting them, there's no need to do anything other
than print up a certificate.
