[board-discuss] [VOTE] Approve version 1.3.1 of the CoI policy

2021-11-23 Thread Thorsten Behrens
Dear directors, all,

calling for a VOTE on the just-published draft update to the CoI
policy [1], to modify our Rules of Procedure [2] - such that we
reference version 1.3.1 of the CoI policy:

---

Preamble

In addition to § 7, (5) of the statutes, the Board of Directors hereby
agrees on the following rules of procedure. Notwithstanding any
regulations in the statutes, this document defines board processes,
decision making, as well as sharing and delegation of board tasks.

Binding part of these Rules of Procedure is the Board’s Conflict of Interest 
Policy: 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/2/21/Mike_BoD_Conflict_of_Interest_Policy_ver1_3_1.pdf

Should elements of the Rules of Procedure be in collision with the
Conflict of Interest Policy, the rules of the Conflict of Interest
Policy always shall prevail.

---

According to § 1, 2. of said Rules of Procedure, this vote runs for
one week, until December 1st, 2021. After approval, the amended Rules
of Procedure will be published and enter into immediate effect.

[board-discuss] Proposed version of the CoI Policy 1.3.1

We are all strongly committed to work on 
improved iterations, and so we already have a subsequent 
work-in-progress version 1.3.0, which I attach to this e-mail. It will

seek for an even broader consensus.


There is a marginally improved 1.3.1 version here from review today:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/1/1f/Mike_BoD_Conflict_of_Interest_Policy_ver1_3_1.odt

As per §1.2 of the Rules of Procedure, it is proposed to
upgrade the relevant elements of the Rules of Procedure to replace
the CoI policy with this somewhat ameliorated version of the same
policy, after a board vote.

Regards,

Michael.
