Right, Lukas makes a great point. A secretary working on a bylaw is not an issue, because it still requires a majority vote from voting members to pass. If we're worried about the secretaries overstepping their powers, they can't do it unless given a bunch of +1s from the voting members, so where does this issue stem from?
With this groups recent dedication to making a bylaw change for pretty much anything anyone is going to do, not only will the secretaries need to be updating bylaws, but they'll be fundamentally unable to do anything at all without updating a bylaw first. Updating bylaws, or creating new ones, in line with requests from a number of voting members, then putting that to a vote sounds like exactly their job to me, and sounds like democracy in action. Isn't that what we want? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PHP Framework Interoperability Group" group.
