[governance] Notice to the IGC on Proposed Charter Amendments

[Deirdre Williams]

My comment refers to point 5 below:
"Before the initiation of the Voting eBallot, all voting members are
requested to inform the IGC if they feel that there are other necessary
amendments to be made to the  Charter and a period of 48 hours is given to
allow members to respond."
Is there any reason that we cannot deal with these amendments piecemeal?
Avri has made a powerful and convincing proposal that has received a good
deal of support.
I propose therefore that we should vote on this amendment to this section
of the Charter now.
As other amendments are proposed we can deal with them.
Attempts to review the whole Charter together have been unsuccessful.
Perhaps making a review section by section will work better.
What do others think?
Deirdre
