Revise working group description and voting #457
Conversation
Specify no more than 2 WG co-chairs can vote in the Executive Committee. Remove descriptions of cyberinfrastructure and early career scholars in charter to go along with proposal to redefine them as Working Groups.
Specify no more than 2 WG co-chairs can vote in the Executive Committee. Define cyberinfrastructure and early career scholars as Working Groups. Related to proposed OMF Charter amendment #457
- Specify each WG only gets one vote in the Executive Committee to prevent dilution of votes from the Members Council. WG should internally find consensus or abstain from votes where they cannot find consensus - Formally define cyberinfrastructure and Early Career Scholars as Working Groups.
I've updated this PR with the changes discussed in our recent Executive Committee meeting this morning. Each WG still only gets one vote to prevent dilution of voting power from the Members Council, (5+3 = 8 total votes) and some preliminary language to address the possibility of conflicts within WG on voting matters that should be unlikely but if they do end up unresolvable would turn into an abstention |
