<div dir="ltr"><div>So I have been kind of winging it in adapting our IRC meeting practices to the email list. Would it help if I make a wiki page writing down how it works?</div><div><br></div><div>1) Motion followed by +1/-1 voting</div>
<div>2) First vote is cindered seconding the motion</div><div>3) If the motion just gets lost into discussion then there is no second for the motion (so it is considered withdrawn)</div><div>4) Quorum: On IRC this was easy, in the email list we I have been trying to get half our participants to vote</div>
<div>5) Two weeks: Long enough to account for busy/vacations, short enough that the committee accomplishes something</div><div><br></div><div>Aside: I notice the board carries there IRC meetings over to the email list for any members that could not attend the meeting, but I expect they have more policies about needing every board member to vote, this is handy as they know when to "stop".</div>
