<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear All,<br>
<br>
I am voting "disagreed" for the present MOT6 on loomio because;<br>
<br>
a) I have already voted "agreed" for "MOT3: President and
Vice-President be selecting <br>
from current board" and also explained my views in my earlier mail
to this list [1].<br>
<br>
b) I think the President and regional Vice-President should be
able<br>
to vote on motions tabled at the board meetings. This is presently<br>
possible only for elected board members.<br>
<br>
I am also for continuing our current practice of appointing our
charter members <br>
(or external members, although there is no precedence for this) as<br>
Officers for other committee (marketing, incubation, SAC, Geo4All,
UN, etc.) <br>
and software PSCs.<br>
<br>
Current board members Helena, Angelos and Anita were nominated as
regional<br>
Vice-President at our last board meeting. Anita had declined.
Therefore,<br>
I would like to propose the following new motions.<br>
<br>
MOT8: Helena to continue as regional Vice-President for the rest
of<br>
her term as elected Board member. (Nominated by Venka and seconded
by<br>
Maria at the board meenting held on 3 Nov. 2016)<br>
<br>
MOT9: Appoint Angelos as our new regional Vice-President for the
rest of<br>
his term as elected Board member. (Nominated by Venka and seconded
by<br>
Maria at the board meeting held on 3 Nov. 2016 and also earlier on
loomio)<br>
<br>
Best<br>
<br>
Venka<br>

<pre wrap="">We have now exhausted the three proposals put forth in the IRC meeting.
I would like to resume discussion, asking all board members to listen now
and compose a motion that that can be approved. In several cases the voting
process is shutting down conversation at the expense of communication.
Please take a moment to read why each motion was rejected, and what you
could do to open up communication with the parties that were forced to vote
"no".
