I'll be expressing my view fully on another post to this thread, but |
| 13 |
basically I don't think the document that dictates Gentoo's |
| 14 |
meta-structure should be amendable by the overruling body. Furthermore, |
| 15 |
due to past history and in good judgment, our governance policy should |
| 16 |
require a global vote of the developer community. |

I agree with the idea of separating the goal and general rules of the |
| 28 |
functioning of the council and their influence in the global governance |
| 29 |
from the daily details of how they operate. The latter should be set |
| 30 |
freely by a council at any time with a majority vote. However, slacker |
| 31 |
marks aren't a detail on the council operation but a "safety net" |
| 32 |
measure that should be part of the meta-structure policy document. |
