They both are doing for the greater good so its not a split as a "community" but simply the issue of "Doing things the right way vs. doing the right thing" - © SD69 Both of them are right after all... Maybe SD69 was disclosing that as it was sent to more than just him? As he mentions woody sent it to a few people so seeing the s*itstorms created here for every minor thing he wants to avoid being involved in it in the future by being seen as related to woody's intentions via association? Oh and that email doesn't smudge woody's character IMO; it just shows the lengths to which current Council are prepared to go to save the Community's future... Anyway its water under the bridge... |
Re: [Council] By-Laws for Hildonfoundation
Dear Council,
Clarifications required: Quote:
This means that if there are 4 candidates and 1 withdraws, then an extension of the nomination period has to be granted as 3 is the minimum number of seats that need to be finalised right with a minimum of 4 candidates standing? So let's say after nomination period is extended, 1 candidate nominates him/herself and then we have 4 candidates. If any candidate withdraws within 3 days of the end of the extended nomination period, then what? Another extension? Can we have a clause here that after 1 extension is granted, there will be no further extensions and the previous BoD carries on for another 3 months? Elections are hence held after 3 months? Quote:
P.S. Everything else seems fine IMO :) |
Re: [Council] By-Laws for Hildonfoundation
I want to add a whole bunch of feedback, hopefully within the next 48hr, also some stuff that's related but perhaps slightly off-topic, I hope I'm not too late!

After the initial extension, if nominations are not received the appropriate action is determined by the current leadership of the respective body. If received and withdrawn, it could in fact trigger another extension if the first was under 30 days, but only to a max of 4 weeks total. Quote:

Allowing the existing two to continue on while simply restarting the process again seems reasonable. Yes, it's a short term (three weeks to at the most two months), but I'd rather a short term than to mandate someone into place for a year that may be undesirable. One last option: We may change the wording in the forced election cycle clause to read something like this: Quote:

Yes, there is infighting at times. Yes, there are disagreements at times. No community is without disagreement. But to suggest that there's no point to trying to continue because of a couple squabbles is like letting grandma become a hobo because Aunt June doesn't like the way the doilies are being divided up. |

a lot of N9(00)s owner browse here, hoping (or even assuming?) that... Maemo.org will pull if off. did you ever (except in some of my posts >¦-) see a NOKIA logo on this site? readers always thought of Maemo.org as an independent entity. NOKIA pulling out? so? so, yes, ppl care, they just don't realize how much they (should) care :eek::rolleyes: |

Ok, Revision 7... Just about 24 hours before the election for Board ends.
Please check and review. To see deltas from previous versions, see the respective pdf links in those posts further back in this thread. Rev 5 to 6 Rev 4 to 5 Rev 3 to 4 We've come a long way from the initial version, but I think it's pretty solid at this point. |

And I already knew the details all too well. Maybe I'm just venting pent up anxiety. I definitely don't want Maemo to evaporate. EDIT: at this point I believe the best solution for assets would be to see if they could be taken over by Jolla. EDIT 2: some of you are taking that last line WAY too far. I'm frustrated by the infighting. I'm now concerned it's going to scuttle any chance of a Maemo survival solution. So I offered up Jolla as a potential savior. Obviously I could have chosen my words better. But for people to attack me outright instead of taking my history here into consideration is beyond belief. I have always worked in the best interests of the Maemo community. How quickly some forget. |
