debian.ch AGM 2010 on 2010-05-20
Hi all, this is the announcement of the AGM 2010 of debian.ch: Date: Thursday, 20th May 2010 Time: 20:00-21:00 (CEST aka +0200) Place: irc://irc.debian.org/debian.ch (OFTC) Current (temporary) Agenda == Apart from the anually re-occuring things from every AGM (e.g. the reports and elections[0]), the current temporary agenda contains the following additional items: Bylaws: - dba: Updating bylaws to current state of the art of legal writing The actuary proposes a new edition of the bylaws that are worded in the current lege artis, a longer mail with the diffs should be sent to commun...@lists.debian.ch before the final announcement of the AGM 2010. The proposed new bylaws will not change anything in substance though. - dba: Accepting bylaws translated to English as legally binding The actuary is doing a translation of the proposed new bylaws from German to English. Assuming the revised bylaws are accepted, he proposes to accept the English translation as legally binding alternative to the German ones. The translation should be sent to the mailinglist together with the revised bylaws (see above). Italian and French translations could be initiated after AGM 2010, assuming a qualified person can be found to create the translations, they could be declared as legally binding as well. Otherwise, they would stay as informal and unofficial translations for the time being (Luca and Didier already expressed their interest in probably doing that during AGM 2009). - dba: Changing the legal seat from Zurich to Bern. The actuary proposes to move the legal seat from Zurich to Bern, both for legal and political reasons. - dba: Write down in the protocol the reminder, that bylaws should be kept 'stable' for the next future, by not being tempted to put non-useful/non-required stuff inside. - mfk: revise membership: + membership should only be automatic for DDs with permanent residence in Switzerland + other DDs, and non-DDs with advocations, need to show up at the AGM when their membership is to be decided and introduce themselves, travel will (better: can) be funded. - mfk/ip(?): voluntary membership fee Note about submitting items for the Agenda == Any member of debian.ch can submit items for the agenda either at anytime in advance, or at the AGM itself. However, all items of relevance must be announced properly, items of relevance brought up at the AGM cannot valid be voted upon. The deadline for items of relevance for the AGM 2010 is 2010-05-05 23:59:59 +0200. Any non-member of debian.ch cannot directly submit items to the agenda, but indirectly by suggesting them to the actuary at i...@debian.ch or any other member instead. Final Agenda The final agenda for the AGM 2010 will be sent on 2010-06-06. Regards, Daniel [0] unless someone is extraordinarily stepping back from the board, there will be no elections on AGM 2010 since we've done elections for 2010 already on AGM 2009. -- Address:Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: daniel.baum...@panthera-systems.net Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

It would really be a good thing to have tested snapshots (in addition to the daily builds, which are not guaranteed to work AFAIK), so people could just download images, write them to an USB stick, and enjoy. We don't need to have perfectly up-to-date tested snapshots. Updating them every 2-3 months would clearly be enough. see ml; images are back on live.d.n, whereas *-builds/ are autobuilds and release/ are manually tested images (though release is currently rsyncing in). -- Address:Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
