version of what you are voting on: If you vote Yes, you accept the
following change (summary). If you vote No, you reject the proposal.
<br>
<br>
The proposed amendment contains the following elements:
<br>
<br>
- statement of the purpose of the IGC list
<br>
- set of guidelines for decorum on the IGC list and any other IGC
<br>
lists that may be created
<br>
- description of inappropriate postings for IGC list(s)
<br>
<br>
We are also proposing that the coordinators can create, if they
<br>
desire to do so, an advisory body to help them in determining when the
<br>
posting rules have been infringed. The decision and responsibility
<br>
of when to take action is, however, still left with the coordinators.
<br>
<br>
If this charter amendment is accepted by a 2/3 vote of the current
elegible
<br>
members, action for suspension of removal can be initiated in the
<br>
following manner:
<br>
<br>
a. the coordinators decide on their own that action needs to be taken
<br>
b. the advisory group recommends it to coordinators and they agree
<br>
that action needs to be taken
<br>
c. a group of 20 IGC members publicly petitions the coordinators to
<br>
consider action and the coordinators agree actions should be taken
<br>
<br>
The appeals mechanism remains the same as it is in the current
<br>
charter:
<br>
<br>
Any decision for suspension can be appealed.
<br>
<br>
Any decision to remove someone from the list will call for an
automatic appeal by the appeals team.
