At the January 30, 2008 meeting I would like to discuss the formation of a steering committee. The purpose of this committee will be to manage the project of forming the Wikimedia Canada charity. This committee will remain in place for up to 3 years or until the WMC charity is formed and a board is elected. Any suggestions on what positions should exist on this committee, please feel free to comment here on the list serv as it will make the meeting more efficient. I propose we need:
- Chairperson
- Vice-chair person
- Treasurer
- Secretary (Organizes meetings, communicates results, maintains
record of meetings) 5. Legal adviser (Conducts research on legal issues relating to committee activities and goals)
I don't think that we need to be getting into such a formalized bureaucratic structure quite yet. Even if we agree, it would be inappropriate to quickly fill these positions in a chat room.
