Formal amendment to the proposed Constituition



Hi,

	I wish to propose A Formal Amendment to the Proposed
 constituition. 
______________________________________________________________________
 1 A) Move to remove clause 4.1.3 
 2----------------------------------------------------------------------
 3    3. Override any decision by the Project Leader or a Delegate.
 4----------------------------------------------------------------------
 5    And replace it by:
 6
 7----------------------------------------------------------------------
 8    3. Override any decision by the Project Leader, Technical
 9       Committee or a Delegate. 
10----------------------------------------------------------------------
11
12 B) Replace 4.2.2 and 4.2.2.1
13 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
14     2. Delaying a decision by the Project Leader or their Delegate:
15         1. If the Project Leader or their Delegate has made a decision,
16            then Developers can override them by passing a resolution to
17            do so; see s4.1(3).
18 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
19 And replace it by:
20 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
21      2. Delaying a decision by the Project Leader, Technical
22         Committee or their Delegate: 
23           1. If the Project Leader, Technical Committee  or their
24              Delegate has made a decision, then Developers can
25              override them by passing a resolution to do so; see
26              s4.1(3). 
27 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
28
29 C) Replace Section 6.1.4
30----------------------------------------------------------------------
31    4. Overrule a developer (requires a 3:1 majority).
32       The Technical Committee may ask a developer to take a particular
33       technical course of action even if the developer does not wish to;
34       this requires a 3:1 majority. For example, the Committee may
35       determine that a complaint made by the submitter of a bug is
36       justified and that the submitter's proposed solution should be
37       implemented.
38----------------------------------------------------------------------
39
40 And replace it by
41----------------------------------------------------------------------
42    4. Overrule a developer (requires a 3:1 majority in a vote by the
43       Technical Committee).  The Technical Committee may ask a
44       developer to take a particular technical course of action even
45       if the developer does not wish to; this requires a 3:1 majority
46       of all the Technical Committee members currently seated. For
47       example, the Committee may determine that a complaint made by
48       the submitter of a bug is justified and that the submitter's
49       proposed solution should be implemented.
