I almost let this slip.  Sala asked me to call the charter amendment poll by
today, unless we need more time for discussion.  So let's just confirm, are
we ready to call a poll on any or all of these proposed amendments?  I think
I have the latest/preferred text for each below, but correct me if I'm
wrong:

 

1. ... "Prior to voting the prospective voter must personally ascertain that
they are a member of the IGC based on membership criteria described
elsewhere in this charter and posted as part of the voting information (i.e.
a voter must affirm membership on the voter form prior to voting)." ... "All
ballots will include the ability for voters to abstain on any choice
included on the ballot."

 

This has > ten proposers.





2. Under "Selection of Coordinators", regarding when elections are held,
change "by midsummer (the summer solstice) to "by the end of that calendar
year".  Also in "If events prevent an election by midsummer, it will be held
as soon after midsummer as possible," change the word "midsummer" to "then"
in both places.

 

I think this has three so far (me, Parminder and Izumi), so would need seven
more if we are to put it to the vote with the other one.  Norbert spoke
against, already, and Imran supported a slightly different wording.





3. Under "Working methods", update the address of the mailing list from
governance at lists.cpsr.org to governance at lists.igcaucus.org.

 

This has two (me and Norbert; the others didn't expressly mention it), so it
needs eight more if we are to put it to the vote at the same time.
