Viswa, I have read the bylaws. If a member does not renew before the grace period, in
this case 30th of June, it becomes a new application. 10th July is not exactly within the
grace period is it?

Viswa,
Prior to the departure of several EC members, resolution had been passed to accept the
draft Coi policy that was done by me with Karthik's help. Please ensure that it is
implemented.
A new draft is being prepared, (stemmed from your draft, thank you, Srikanth),
incorporating additional details conforming to international standards for non-profit
organizations. Within a day or two, this draft will be presented in the chapter Wiki for
review, discussion and suggestions by any members (and even interested community members
and other stakeholders).
The draft will be retrieved back to the EC and will be finally vetted and approved as a
standard core document during the upcoming Board Meeting on 20,21 September 2014 at
Bangalore.
Also, you mentioned a board meeting in September.
Does this indicate the AGM or just the four core EC members.
The board meeting on 20,21 at Bangalore is a board meeting. It will take up and decide on
the matter of AGM / Elections in such a way as to conduct the same at the earliest
possible date, as early as the stipulated timelines and documentation requirements
(mainly completion of Audit Report and Annual Report) will allow. It will also review and
decide on the voting eligibility requirements of all chapter members who are members of
the chapter. Further, it will decide on several administrative policies, of which, a major
one will be the feasibility of enlistment of all members (with bare minimum personal data)
on the chapter wiki. Some of these decisions will be acted upon immediately after the
meeting.
The EC is also seriously corroborating on the feasibility of publishing every minutes
and resolutions passed during its business except for the ones require confidential
privacy.
In the meanwhile, we also intend to invite suggestions for modifications and improvements
in the bye-laws and other documents via discussions on the member wiki. Such suggestions,
will be finely filtered and drafted, presented and voted upon during the AGM and will be
passed if approved by a two third majority.
I say four because Nikita had not renewed her
membership as of the first of July 2014 thus ceasing to be a member of the chapter let
alone an EC member.
You may kindly refer to the Bye-law regarding the norms on cessation and reinstatement of
membership.
Thank you,
Viswanathan Prabhakaran
Treasurer
Wikimedia Chapter
Please look into these matters.
