As discussed at the 1300GMT Phone call, changes to the wiki page are
now locked.

Therefore the call at 2100 GMT will be to vote on specific line items.

For those who are unable to attend, you are allowed to register your
vote on the below spreadsheet. For those who can, please record your
vote as it will save us time on the actual call.

The policy points:
http://wiki.dataportability.org/display/dpmain/Governance+taskforce+final+recomendation

Please note the vote will be on a line by line basis of the above wiki
page, which originated from the original governance task force
recommendation.

I thought we had rough consensus to add a few weeks to this "June 1 2008" with respect to getting membership?
Article VII: Membership - Steering Group
1.. The initial roll of MEMBERS of the STEERING GROUP shall consist of everyone who attended at least two of the regularly
scheduled Steering Action Group teleconference calls between April 1 2008 and June 1 2008 and who opts-in to join the STEERING GROUP
by contacting the STEERING GROUP mailing list

I noted Elias' comment of already having voted against it along with explanations.
But honestly I don't think this is fair treatment of the clause presenting it again to be voted, giving it another chance, as
owner/curator of the page. Smart.
And so much about good governance and respecting others. I'll take that as your way to say, it's intentional and on purpose, not
just some "line in the sand".
Thanks.

Aaron - we discussed it and I simply said I was going to step in if
there was foul play in the edits (which thankfully never happened). I
actually just assumed it was edited, my bad for not checking up on it
but I had flagged this was a bad week for me.

The onus was on you to change it, which you you didn't. I voted
against the old provision which was as it stood the current proposal.

Nothing malicious there.

Elias - noted and thanks; I thought you'd edit that in, just like you edited
in the name of the document per our discussions.. anyway, thanks, /ac.
