Within a day or two, this draft will be presented in the chapter Wiki for review, discussion and suggestions by any members (and even interested community members and other stakeholders). The draft will be retrieved back to the EC and will be finally vetted and approved as a standard core document during the upcoming Board Meeting on 20,21 September 2014 at Bangalore.

It will take up and decide on the matter of AGM / Elections in such a way as to conduct the same at the earliest possible date, as early as the stipulated timelines and documentation requirements (mainly completion of Audit Report and Annual Report) will allow. It will also review and decide on the voting eligibility requirements of all chapter members who are members of the chapter. Further, it will decide on several administrative policies, of which, a major one will be the feasibility of enlistment of all members (with bare minimum personal data) on the chapter wiki. Some of these decisions will be acted upon immediately after the meeting. The EC is also seriously corroborating on the feasibility of publishing every minutes and resolutions passed during its business except for the ones require confidential privacy. In the meanwhile, we also intend to invite suggestions for modifications and improvements in the bye-laws and other documents via discussions on the member wiki. Such suggestions, will be finely filtered and drafted, presented and voted upon during the AGM and will be passed if approved by a two third majority.
