I know that I wasn't very active the weeks before - but who was? I absolutely understand that you are trying to keep this thing alive and push it forward. But today it looks more like a board-thing than it ever has looked like. It is ok to have the board in charge to get a result, to lead the process and to set milestones and deadlines. But  now it seems that charter and additional documents were written by a board member, to be discussed at the upcoming board meeting, to then be introduced to "the movement" by the board.
 

I just don't believe that you will get the necessary support from all concerned parties with this approach. I am with Lodewijk and his concerns here.

To come to an end of this nagging mail: I still think that it is possible to work on the movement roles thing cooperatively. But it needs more than only board intention, it needs to bind parallel initiatives like the concrete chapters council ideas and it needs to be more communicative. Rearrange the movement roles core group, redefine the core tasks of the group and ask for new participants. Let us try to not just bury this group without a single word of sorrow, but let us bury it honestly with a deep and public regret if it doesn't make sense to reanimate it.
