Hi,
i think the articles look great. Awesome job. i think it is easier to make
a decision on the quorum if we Abbas can tell us the members we have
currently. Based on my estimation of the members i would think 10 people are
enough for the quorum.
As for the proxy, i think it would be better to limit them to only Wikimedia
Kenya members. By this i mean that non-members should not be given chances
to be proxies, only members.
Lastly i suggest that from our experience we just write down the duties our
project managers performed during the pilot plus a few others. This
includes, writing reports on the project, being accountable for the money
entrusted among other duties.

Greetings,
I have finally managed to get in touch with the advocate and managed to get
a draft of the articles of association. My apologies for the delay. I have
the following comments regarding the attached document:
- it is a draft copy, so please have a look at it and feel free to
share your thoughts. If there is something left out, kindly let me know. If
you need the lawyer to clarify some articles, I will be happy to schedule a
meeting with him so that he can clarify the articles as appropriate.
- I particularly need your input in:
1. Quorum. I remember that the first time I had drated these bylaws,
Oliver had raised an issue on quorum. What kind of quorum do you think is
sufficient for meetings?
2. Proxy. The lawyer has attached a proxy sample in the articles.
Please do tell me if you find it necessary for us to leave it there.
3. The duties of the project manager.
Looking forward to getting your feedback.
Cheers,
Abbas.
ps - the next phase after us agreeing on this document is to resubmit it to
the Chapters Committee for approval.
