That is precisely the point of the CWG. It is a new group created for such 
events with professional outside training paid for by the space.

I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion.

* The CWG would create a protocol for handling the duties given to them
* This protocol would need membership approval before it can be used

It doesn't say anything about the membership approval process.

Yes, and this doesn't change anything.

I think if anything disputes should be handled by a panel of ports with in
the group either champions board members or a new group created for such
events if we feel that right now none of these groups are properly trained
to handle it then I think we should look out side of the space for people
to train said members .

2014-02-19 Thread Michael Griesacker
Does anyone else have a concern about this?
"CWG has the authority to modify their protocol with
approval of the Membership." -I have an issue with this, since having
authority overrides needing approval. If they need approval, they don't
have authority. I'll assume they don't have authority, and the wording just
needs cleaned up.

"...the CWG would be using to set a precident that defines "approval of the
membership".". - the CWD should not be setting precedence or definitions of
membership approval. Do we not have a defined process of membership
approval already?

Mike

[SH-Discuss] Bylaws discussion: Community Working Group

2014-02-19 Thread Torrie Fischer
I'd like to suggest a modification to our bylaws via amendment.

The Problem: Nobody is actually trained to handle interpersonal disputes and 
the resolution therof

The Solution: A Community Working Group that acts as the central point of 
contact for questions about communication between community participants along 
with a respected independent mediator between community participants.

This is an idea that is currently being worked on at Norton's Imperial Labs, 
with lots patterns taken from KDE:

http://ev.kde.org/workinggroups/cwg.php

I would like to see this implemented as:

* A brief amendment to our bylaws that defines the offices required and 
delegates the power of conflict resolution and community management to them, 
with a statement that the CWG has the authority to modify their protocol with 
approval of the Membership.
* A protocol established by the membership in the traditional proposal process 
that the CWG would be using to set a precident that defines "approval of the 
membership".
