General Assembly meeting notes
We had the GA yesterday and it went pretty well! You'll find a summary of the discussions, votes and decisions that were made below!
Removal of the probation period
There was a 1-year probation period for members before they could vote in GA or have a seat in one of the groups. It has been removed as it prevented the involvment of potentially motivated community members.
Co-optation within Moderation and Steering commitees
Up until now, Moderation and Steering commitees members were elected once a year during a GA. However, this was quite rigid, because the project and involvement of members usually moves faster than that.
Moderation and Steering Commitee can now co-opt members into their group at any time. When this happen, a public announcement has to be published on the community channels (blog, matrix, etc.). In order to coopt a member into a group, all current members of the group must be unanimous.
During the next general assembly, each cooptation will be confirmed or revoked by a vote.
GA organization can be done by any board member
As per our statutes, it was done by the Secretary, however, we don't have a Secretary this year, so we had to update our statutes from:
At least fifteen days before the date fixed by the Board, the members of the Association shall be convened by the Secretary.
