older newer | first last |
Gregg 30-Jul-2007 [179x2] | Should we add Aye and Nay as logic words in REBOL? :-) In any case, I vote Aye. |
Though I kind of like a slight twist of adding an 's, now that I say it out loud; users.r. Can't remember if that was on the block or not. | |
btiffin 30-Jul-2007 [181] | Point of Information; users.r was not on the list. But this vote is the first official name pass. There will be a way to ammend the name, but it will require a 3/4 majority vote to open the issue, according to existing Roberts Rules, which still require some form of ammendment and ratification for this esteemed group. |
PeterWood 30-Jul-2007 [182x3] | I vote Nay for user.r |
..but I could be persuaded to vote for users.r unless RT does the sensible thing and changes the default file extension to .reb | |
I vote Aye for IRUA | |
btiffin 30-Jul-2007 [185] | Point of information; Sorry. Can't vote for anything but user.r yet. It's a top down pass. If user.r does not win a majority RABBLE is up next. |
PeterWood 30-Jul-2007 [186] | Understood |
Sunanda 31-Jul-2007 [187] | aye |
Pekr 31-Jul-2007 [188x2] | Brian ... how is that IRUA had no negative references? I sent my email one day ago, hopefully it was there in time, and I am nearly sure I voted for IRUA with some negativity. First - it is not real world, second I am not sure what the abbreviation means, I mean - having it on my t-shirt is far from being cool, if even I can't depict the abbreviation. And third, it reminds me of IRA :-) My email was sent 10:29 GMT + 2 |
real world = real word | |
btiffin 31-Jul-2007 [190x2] | Point of information for the esteemed member; Yes the mail was delayed, but the original lists and counts were recinded. A new motion was brought forward with the new counts and sort. user.r was elevated to highest on the list, IRUA relegated to third. The current vote is for user.r if it fails to receive a majority then RABBLE will be tabled for vote. Point of information; Raw data can be requested from btiffin using the email in Altme. The data will also be posted to the home site archive for historical purposes once the archive is established. |
Point of information; The chair would like to remind the house, that due to the nature of the motion at hand, an ojection raised by any member will halt the proceeding and the issue will return to the table for open debate. | |
Chris 31-Jul-2007 [192] | Nay |
Pekr 1-Aug-2007 [193] | my user.r vote - Aye |
btiffin 1-Aug-2007 [194x3] | Point of Information: A quorum has been reached. The aye's have it. |
The chair is pleased to announce the Official Formation of user.r | |
With this issue now complete, as per the opening the of the meeting I move to adjourn. To Recap; user.r has won a quorum majority and will be the Official name of the association A home site is being prepared on Qtask.com, under a project name of user.r The IRUA and IRUA chat forums will remain for 72 hours, after which they will be renamed. The first meeting of user.r is scheduled to begin Saturday August 11th 2007 at 6pm GMT. This meeting will be held in Qtask, under the user.r project. Anyone wishing to attend, please accept the invitations and please request an invitation by dropping an Altme note to btiffin. Word of this new association will be spread across other online systems as well. The chair would like to thank all participants. | |
Ashley 1-Aug-2007 [197] | I second the motion to adjourn, and add a belated Aye for user.r. |
btiffin 1-Aug-2007 [198] | The chair would llike to once again thanks all participants. This meeting stands adjouned. |
Terry 5-Aug-2007 [199x3] | Um, at what point did we determine Qtask as the home site (the sixth motion)? |
This, Mr. Chairman, is a travesty. How do you account for this oversight? | |
Mr. Chairman, your bias towards Qtask is well documented. I recommend a private IRUA task force to look into possible influence peddling and other corruptions commited by IRUA's executive branch. | |
PeterWood 5-Aug-2007 [202x2] | Terry: I can understand your frustration. No decision has been made taken and my understanding is that the use of Qtask is a temporary convenience. |
This was posted in the user.r chat conversation: The choice of the Qtask system will still be open for democratic objection, but democracy was taking too long. | |
Terry 5-Aug-2007 [204x3] | Democracy is taking too long, so I'll accept Qtask ... travesty at best. |
The decision to use Qtask has clearly been made here. To suggest that once the user.r Qtask group has started, that a vote to move will be sucessful is naive, and obvious to Qtask supporters. | |
Barging ahead...Qtask home site is being built. :) -- B. Tiffin That smiley is incriminating | |
PeterWood 5-Aug-2007 [207x2] | You concern that once the user.r Qtask group is started there will be a barrier to move and hence to adopt another home site is valid. |
I think that this should be addressed. | |
Terry 5-Aug-2007 [209x4] | I objected to the sixth open motion (using Qtask as the home site) on the 26th of May, and yet my objection has clearly been stonewalled. |
I propose an emergency meeting, and given the seriousness of this situation, and the alleged 'influence peddling corruption scandal" that the meeting NOT be chaired by Mr. Tiffin, nor anyone with direct or indirect ties with Qtask. | |
This proposal is thus motioned. | |
I also motion that this meeting be conducted behind close doors to prevent any leaks to the media. | |
btiffin 6-Aug-2007 [213x2] | I'll second the motion for an emergency meeting. |
I'll also second the motion that it be held in private | |
Terry 6-Aug-2007 [215] | I motion that Peter Wood act as Chairman if willing. |
Pekr 6-Aug-2007 [216] | guys, you are starting to act like a politics :-) |
Terry 6-Aug-2007 [217] | I motion that comment be stricken from the record. |
Pekr 6-Aug-2007 [218x5] | who gives a f..., what the site is, right? It can change as many times as the group wishes for. I believe btiffin simply wanted to get thing started. What would be his intention/motive to use Qtask? He is surely not paid by Reichart to bring user.r to qtask. Terry, I wonder if you would rise the same objections, if from the very beginning the site was based upon Kommonwealth? :-) |
This whole thing starts to sound rudiculous, not matter what Robert's rules propose .... | |
if someone will read it outside our group, he/she might think we are all ill. The group of what - less than 10 participants, can't get things moving in a natural way ... | |
I wonder if someone actually has a real preference to base our vote for the site upon? As for me, I don't, because I don't know, what the requirements are going to be .... | |
I now might understand, why Carl does not like official organisations ;-) | |
Terry 6-Aug-2007 [223x2] | Order |
Sir, your comments are best tabled in the user.r debate group. | |
Pekr 6-Aug-2007 [225x2] | OK |
Sorry, did not distinguished those two and its roles ... | |
Ashley 6-Aug-2007 [227] | I second the motion that Pekr's comment be stricken from the record, and move that his comments preceding this one likewise be stricken. |
Chris 6-Aug-2007 [228] | If I may represent Petr's main point: that it does not matter what web framework the temporary site is based upon, so long as no dependency to that framework is created and so long as there are no ulterior motives for using that framework. In my opinion, given the agonies that have brought us to this point, it would not have been in Brian's or the group's interest to skimp on the selection process in favour of a preordained framework. Dependency, as I've stated before, is of greater concern. |
