Given that I feel the project's way of removing MIA developers is a bit random, a bit opaque and not an explicit part of the NM agreement, I think anything dependent on the actual number of Developers risks paralysing the democratic processes. Debian Membership should probably be addressed before increasing the GR requirements. > Various IRC discussions and the discussion on debian-project in December > told me that others feel similar. So here is a proposal. Further, the discussion on debian-project in December asked for data http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2008/12/msg00197.html and there's little available data to support the options in this GR. I think it's improper that the proposal did not link the discussion. Because there's little available data, I'm open to experimenting with this, but I think we need a safeguard to avoid paralysis. I think a so-called "sunset" expiry is a good idea. AMENDMENT START ======================================================================== Replace "too small" with "thought to be too small, but there is a lack of evidence about the correct level". Replace clause c with "c) if general resolutions are proposed but none receives the required number of seconds in a year, this resolution expires and the required number of seconds returns to K." ======================================================================== AMENDMENT END This amendment may be combined with any of the proposal in Message-id: <87vdq3gcf6....@vorlon.ganneff.de> or the amendments in Message-id: <87r60rgcdd....@vorlon.ganneff.de> Message-id: <20090322131519.gh4...@halon.org.uk> and I invite their supporters to accept this amendment. Otherwise, I ask for seconds for all three combinations. I suggest that their ballot lines be the same as for the proposal or amended proposals with "with expiry clause" appended.
