Ps. How do we go about replacing our lost board member?
I believe that's spelled out in our charter, though I can't find my copy at the moment. I guess we also need to make sure that any public records are updated to reflect the change in the board membership.
Ah, indeed it does.
- Representation of the Project in the Conservancy. The Developers,
each a signatory hereto, shall represent the Project in its official communication with the Conservancy. There shall be seven Developers (together, the "Committee"), elected by the community members of the Project listed in the Project's AUTHORS file (the "Community Members"). Each Developer shall continue to serve until he or she resigns from the position. The Developers may be removed from the position at any time by a majority vote of the Community Members. Upon the resignation or removal of a Developer, the Community Members shall elect a replacement Developer to serve on the Committee. The Committee will elect a single individual to communicate with the Conservancy (the "Representative") and shall notify the Conservancy promptly following the election of a new Representative. The Representative will have the authority to instruct the Conservancy on the Project's behalf on all matters. This section may be modified by a vote of at least 3/4 of the Community Members, with the consent of the Conservancy, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
So the community should be notified and we should hold an election.
Hi Aaron, thanks for looking this up!
How quickly do you think we should move ahead on organizing a vote? If it should be done soon, Aaron would you be willing to take the lead on organizing it? Otherwise, if it can wait until after the release, I'll have more spare organizational energy to do it.
