Hi and sorry for long delay. I was very busy during March, so it's my responsibility because we haven't done this earlier.

Gerard and I have come to the joint proposal for changing the consensus-based rules. The proposal is below and we should send it to the Board.

Discussion about the proposal should last up to April 1st.

"During more than a decade of its existence, Language committee's main task was to block creation of the projects. Having in mind that goal and the fact that the capacities of the Wikimedia movement at that time were not linguistically strong, the main rule related to the decision-making process inside of the Language committee was consensus.

Language policy is different today than it was at the time of creation. We have established a common sense practice based on the situation then. As a result, we ask the Board to reconsider the rule of consensus inside of the Language committee and allow it to make decisions by majority, supermajority or other methods defined by the committee itself."
