Re: Constitution - formal proposal (v0.5)
Hi,
6.1.4 reads:
______________________________________________________________________
4. Overrule a developer (requires a 3:1 majority).
The Technical Committee may ask a developer to take a particular
technical course of action even if the developer does not wish to;
this requires a 3:1 majority. For example, the Committee may
determine that a complaint made by the submitter of a bug is
justified and that the submitter's proposed solution should be
implemented.
______________________________________________________________________
Does this mean a vote held by the technical committee? Or a
vote held as a general SRP? If the former, is there anyway for the
developrs as a body to override it? Section 4.1 does not mention this
as a power that the developers have as a group (The technical
committee is not a delegate, as I read the constituition).
I think 6.1.4 should be clarified, and 4.1 should be expanded
to cover the interaction between the technical committee and
the developers as a group.
If I find others of a like mind, we can even submit this as a
formal amendment ;-)
