[governance] Results of charter amendment poll, and nomcom selection process

[Jeremy Malcolm]

Of those who voted in the election, 16 abstained, 4 voted no, and 71 voted yes.  This is 78%, which is sufficient for the charter amendment to pass.

The amended nomination committee process, showing the amendments, can be found at http://www.igcaucus.org/node/2.

28 current members (ie. those who voted in the election, shown at http://www.igcaucus.org/node/12/%253Cbr%2520/%253E) also volunteered to sit on the new nominating committee.  The minimum was 25, so we just scraped in.

Ana Rankovic
Antonio M. Moreiras
Avri Doria

Please respond if you think that you should be on this list but are not.

The process by which the members of the new nomcom will be selected are the same as used in previous years (see http://lists.cpsr.org/lists/arc/governance/2008-09/msg00124.html), namely a draw based on random number seeds obtained from the 16 October draw of the Irish, English and American national lotteries.  So, you have until then to raise any questions or disputes about the pool.

After the results are announced, there will be a 48 hour period before the nomcom starts its work to allow members who may wish to do so, to run the procedure to verify the results and for the chair of the nomcom to confirm the willingness of those selected to serve.
