[Movementroles] Edit war in movement roles?

[Samuel Klein]

Please do not edit war over this.

I think all groups in the movement with trademark agreements will be
able to participate in fundraisnig in the sense of raising funds on
their own.   Direct fundraising via the sitewide notice during the
annual fundraiser is different, and has so far been restricted to a
subset of chapters.

There is a question of what it means to share banner-driven
fundraising 'proportionally' with groups -- whether geolocating a
reader's IP is a good method for defining proportionality for some
groups, and whether any other methods make sense.  And there are
philosophical differences about whether this concept of
proportionality, rather than something tied to mission-aligned work /
effective planning / measurable impact  is a good long-term model.

I do not expect us to fully resolve this question by the summer, we
should focus on identifying points where there is no consensus.
