Hi
all,
Re
the first issue:
My
thought would be that the issue champion would be positioned to have this sense
of when his/her issue has sufficient consensus around a proposed solution. At
the next TC meeting, the champion would make a motion to adopt the proposed
solution. (Of course any voting TC member is allowed to make such motions, it
just makes sense for the straightforward issues to expect the champion to make
the motion - provides some catharsis for the champion if nothing else
;).
Then, as with any motion, discussion, if appropriate, could ensue. When a
call for a vote is made, just have the standard procedure be for the vote
to be done by web ballot. In this way, the motion gets recorded clearly in the
minutes, but the meeting does not get bogged down in the inefficiencies of
voting on teleconferences. (Of course, if the meeting is a F2F, the vote could
be taken then and there). In the following meeting, I presume there
would be a section under Old Business in which the results of web ballot votes
processed since the last TC meeting would be briefly reviewed; again, this
effects the recording of the decisions into the minutes.
This
seems to me like a good balance between efficiency and sufficient formality so
as to leave a clear succinct record of decisions made.
HTH,
Rand

24 11am eastern
Hi,
This is just a reminder of
our regular call tomorrow at 11 am eastern, 8am pacific, 5pm Germany.
Call in is: 877-988-8393, int'l 203
566-8013, pc 484868.
I have two
items for discussion:
- what is the best
approach for voting on issues that have a proposed solution that has been
discussed and apparently agreed to by many (ie, several from the f2f).
The options are web ballot or review and voting on the TC call. I
favor the former, but would like to get input. Danny, I added you to
copy as you you expressed an opinion on this last week - if you can't join us,
send your views by email please.
- which
issues to discuss at next week's TC call.
Let us know if you have more.
Thanks.
