Although we probably feel we've had enough debates about rules(!), could I suggest we put Membership Rules on the agenda for the next meeting? I suggest we use the same general framework for making these decisions as before, i.e: * Board Meeting, 21st: Agree scope and start debate * Meta, Mailing list, 22nd-~28th: Open debate with community on content * Board Meeting, 28th: Approve Rules This timetable would mean the rules are approved in time to accept guarantor members once the incorporation has been completed. I suggest the scope includes: * Both "Supporters" and "guarantor members" * Membership fee (if any) * Age limit (if any) * Provisions to guarantee U18s £1 (if any) * Disclosures required (Real name? Usernames? Address?) * Broad guidance on circumstances where the Board might refuse membership Is this a sensible approach? Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
