Re: [ga] Vote

I was in the second WG here and been here ever since. I don't recall a WG that went of list.
  perhaps you are thinking of the sublist idea. I liked it but most hated it. But alas that was back when the GA really worked as a GA. I think your solution is a good one though. If you can just get people to go participate in voting.

          The voting booth has worked fine for WGs in the past. The conversations take place on the list and the votes happen in the booth. I think that's a good system.
   
  For now I believe we only need a chairman whose job it is to just organize debates and represents no one. I believe that can come later.

  I would suggest that we quickly move forward again. This time I would suggest we vote here and come up with a consensus as to the wording of the next vote. For for that matter we could just come up with a consensus on the vote.
   
  Reason for doing it here.
   
  Certainly there are many that have been here longer than I when the two ccTLD Peters sent me here, but I have seen over that time that whenever things get pulled off this list they are diminishing. Both the activity being taken away and the list. It causes fracturing and dissinterest. Also people have shown time again that they are untrusting of other spaces. Further as the results show more people are active regarding an issue if it is occurring here.
  So while a "show of hands" may not be as impeccable as a voting booth it is nothing but open and transparent - which is a goal.

  Debate as to the first elected person(s) from here.
  My vote is for an equal co-chair position that will run things here and be sent by us to represent us elsewhere. I lean toward a spokesperson concept rather than a freewheeling President position. Hopefully internally the two would represent pros and cons here and then go forth with both our majority consensus position and our minority position and do it all here for optimum oppeness and transparency.
