[Qgis-psc] Voting on revised charter

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Tim,

Regarding voting:

We never really had a voting of the board in the past. It was kind of 
who was engaged and committed at the early or right times got into the 
PSC. We need to "correct" this.

I think, this time we should start from a plain field - from zero (empty 
board). Everybody should have a chance to get on the PSC and on the 
board - not just existing members.

We just have to define how many seats the PSC will have for the next 
period and give everybody a chance to be a candidate. The board is 
defined in the revised charter (if accepted) as being three people 
(chair, vice-chair, treasurer). That's clear.

So we should put out a message and ask if there are interested 
candidates who want to run for a seat on the PSC and/or board.

And we should define how many seats there are on the PSC.

Would you agree with that?

Andreas
