Given that we're currently struggling with 15 days, I'd be worried about shortening it to 5 especially for proposals like CX that take a lot of discussion. That isn't to say that the specs council should take 15 days every time, but let's first see it taking less time before officially shortening the period of time.

+1 for the removal of the notification period.

Also, what about shortening the Specs Council review period as well?
In case of OASIS open, it is supposed to be less than 5 days.

If we could also generate feeds from this list of polls so that members could simply subscribe to a list of tasks, I would be all in favor of the 3 day notice period (which seems necessary given our clunky way of getting votes).

Expediency FTW?

I would like to see us reduce this notification period – the Membership voting period is seven days – and would recommend a three day notification period excluding weekends and holidays. This would reduce the current process from taking a maximum of 29 days to a maximum of 25 days which still seems very lengthy. I do wonder about the need of the notification period considering that the voting period is seven days and every member receives an email when the vote opens.

Thoughts?
