[ga-rules] Let us try!

[Eric Dierker <eric@hi-tek.com>]

Please visit OUR WEBSITE and familiarize yourself with our rules.  Let
us move forward with a great set of modifications.

Our first order of business is clearly a clean mechanisim to bring
things to a vote. Do not let detractors vary us from our task.  (did you
know that a suspension is only appealable to the CHAIR)

Ok let us not get bogged down in roberts rules of order.

Time is of critical importance for due process.  Make a motion and let
it simmer. then formulate the result of that simmer.

Most important is to focus the chair upon the motion, and have a
mechanism to force her to recognize such a motion, and then act.  Our
leaders do much better when they have to act upon the mandate of the
stakeholders. [this is outreach and education]

We must build a mechanism that REQUIRES action from our elected
officials.

There are truly 3 versions; The French which requires direct order with
passion; The English which requires a total count; and the American
which loves this notion called consensus.  But there is also our style
which requires all three., we are in good stead.  Let us work on a most
considered vote.

1.  A vote for any matter may be called by the signing on of any 10
participants.

2.  Signing is considered a yes to any call for action by another.

3  Five days after a call is considered a reasonable time.

This is basic and is the beginning.

Best to all!
