This is not within the councils power to get rid of. The users voted for |

GLEP-39 http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/glep/glep-0039.html which states |

our requirements. Should it not be up to them to change it? |

Note personally I think the mark is childish as written for the most |
10 |
part and got rushed in some 5 years ago. But it does have some validity |
11 |
in that it seems to yield council members to stepping down from the |
12 |
council before returning to the slack nature that we all need from time |
13 |
to time. |

Re: Best times for meetings.. |
16 |
Ok so I generally am employed from the hours of 9-5 M-F PST (GMT-7). The |
17 |
company I work for can have official meetings any day of the week any |
18 |
hour of the day with not much more than an hours notice. I've been in |
19 |
the meeting/council channel for over 5 years now. So I clearly have an |
20 |
interest in what we are doing as a meta distribution, but If I'm unable |
21 |
to make a meeting and it's scheduled in the time-frame of my work hours |
22 |
then I can guaranty nothing. It's more likely that I'd have to be in/out |
23 |
for the duration of the meeting. If proxy is required then I'd call for |
24 |
a semi perm proxy of the next in line on the vote rankings. At least |
25 |
till it causes a personal conflict of interest. |

We can vote on the +m/+v thing if you want to make it official. But it |
28 |
seems we had a general consensus from everybody that this is what would |
29 |
be best. |
