2014-02-27 Thread a l
My understanding of the working group was that they would come up with
plans to suggest to the board and members as to hope to allocate funds.
This doesn't require a proposal since each disbursement would be a proposal
or board action.

Perhaps I misunderstood the intent though.

If thats a proposal, perhaps Justin would like to send it to discuss@ so we 
can discuss how it would work.

You can't just bring up during a meeting I propose FOO and never follow up 
on it. What good is a proposal if the proponent doesn't work to push it 
through and achieve consensus?

I don't follow. If you have stated many times, champions do not have authority. 
Why would anti-authoritarian-type-people have any issue with this what so ever? 
They would just serve as another member on the committee concerned about the 
growth of SYNHAK.

Technically, they have no authority.

Realistically, champions have been called the leaders of SYNHAK, benevolent 
dictator for life, presidents, directors, and many other titles that imply 
some kind of authority.

Consider also the situation of a champion taking over another officer's job 
while they're still on the CWG. Suddenly they are on the CWG and have actual 
powers.

2014-02-26 Thread Justin Herman
Seems odd to me that we vote members into positions, then act like they
cannot be trusted. The 3 Champions act as the checks to oversee the
operations and act as the voice of the members and non-members. I feel like
the champions have (in the past) been VERY understanding of the complex
nature of conflict resolution. We elect not 1 but up to 3 for a reason.
This allows a person multiple channels of communication. In the past,
concerns have remained candid and have been handled with tact. When has our
current system broke down?

I know that people have had disagreements about the direction of the space
but that is expected and encouraged. Without it we stagnate. Issues arise
when we cannot respect each other and resort to yelling, name calling, or
other tactics.

Maybe instead of a working group, outside of the elected board, we have a
talk about Roberts Rules of Order, conflict resolution, and softskills? It
could help everyone work together more fluidly. If this is of interest to
anyone else I can talk to the speakers I know and have them lead all
interested in a workshop/talk.

 This is entirely wrong.

 I do have significant problems with champions being on the CWG. As I
 stated
 multiple times in the discussion, members of the CWG should *not* have any
 other position within the governance structure. To do so otherwise would
 instill resentment towards them from anti-authoritarians.

Torrie,
While I appreciate your input, I don't feel your implied authority argument 
is valid. I do not see the need to change the proposal at this time.

Thanks,

Devin Wolfe

Would it be possible to have a speaker/workshop on the topic of conflict
resolution here? Do we know any group theripist that would do it for free?
On the website it could be a trained skill line item like bandsaw, conflict
resolution, 3d printer, ...

 :)
