i think your characterization is a bit inaccurate and pejorative. there is a talent in organizational structuring, the balance of formal control and structure with informality. at the left extreme, we have classic military organizations. at the other extreme we have six hippies trying to cooperatively build a fire. if you have too much structure for the scale of the organization, then you can not get things done and sensible people leave the organization. if you have too little, then pretty much the same. i am not aware that these warning signs are actually present, so i am not overly worried. so, imiho, making things a bit more structured might be helpful, if we do not get carried away. but structure to meet the needs of the actual folk doing productive work, not to meet the creative needs of layer nine folk who like to create structure for structure's (and their own ego's) sake. > One more thing missing is the format of policy proposal presentation > at meetings. yes, regularizing this makes sense, as long as it does not overly obscure the actual content of the proposal. randy _______________________________________________ rpd mailing list [email protected] https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/rpd
