Hi, I'm looking at the survey too and feel a bit the same as Peter. The first question seems to suggest transforming current Charter membership into regular membership, but following questions seem to leave open the possibility for the 2 kinds of membership.
Perhaps the first question should be turned into the following choices - should there be a regular membership only ? - should there be a charter membership only ? - should there be both ? and then questions to define the rights, duties and access conditions for each membership category. Anyway thanks for your efforts to capture opinions. This isn't an easy exercice. Yes/no referendum are more common and even in that case, it seems that the people asking the question cannot always properly interpret the result ;-) Even > Hi Vasile & all, > > having tried to fill in the questionnaire I see one main issue: It seems > like "OSGeo Charter membership" =" OSGeo membership". > Not sure it is intended, as my feeling (which may be wrong) is that a > Charter member is more like an advisory board member whereas general > membership is where all the enthusiasts come together.
