Subject: RE: [chairs] TC attendance rules
|
Jamie – can you update us on whether
or not the meeting attendance rule is going to get changed and when that might
happen? I am about to get bit by this rule myself.
That’s annoying. We hold SSTC meetings every other
week. Due to holiday travel I missed our 5-July meeting and, while I can
attend on 19-July, I will miss our 2-Aug call due to vacation. Thus the 2
of 3 rule kicks in for me and I will become a non-voting member of the TC I
co-chair. I immediately wondered how that affected
my ability to operate as co-chair, but I see that the process permits both “Voting
Members” non-voting “Members” to act as chair/co-chairs. I suppose I will ask for a 1-meeting Leave
of Absence. But having to do that just demonstrates how silly the rule is. On a minor related note, I believe the TC process
section 2.4 has a couple uses of the term “Member” where the more
specific term “Voting Member” should probably be used: It
states: “Voting Members who do not participate in two of
every three Meetings (or Specification Ballots as described above) shall lose
their voting rights but remain as Members of the TC. A warning may be sent to
the Member by the Chair, but the loss of voting rights is not dependent on the
warning. A Member may relinquish his voting rights by sending a statement to
that effect to the TC general email list.” I believe: -
“A
warning may be sent to the Member” should be changed
to “A warning may be sent to the Voting Member” -
“A
Member may relinquish” should be “A Voting
Member may relinquish” Rob Philpott |
