Re: [Foundation-l] wikicouncil

I write this email with much hesitation. The issue has been raised often, the possible creation of a council. Naturally, setting up such a structure is bound to be difficult, due to the following issues to discuss and decide * what would be the roles of such a council ? * would that council vote the people to become Wikimedia Foundation board members ? * would this council become a sort of goverment of the project ? * how would people be added to this council (and along with which rules, depending on project size, languages etc...) * ... In short, a nest of questions. The issue has been raised many times already. If there are people interested in setting up a proposal, please just tell me. I am not talking of "discussion" here, I am talking of "writing down a proposal". On which the board could have a look. On which the community could comment and then vote. Anyway, if interested, jsut tell me and we can organise a little chat and a page about that. If noone interested, time will see :-) Ant _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l(a)wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
