A few days later than planned, but I am hereby opening a vote for the
following bylaw changes, colloquially known as "FIG 3.0".

https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/pull/752

The vote will be open for 2 weeks, closing on 2 September 2016 @ 23:59 UTC.

As usual, the vote is open to voting representatives only and is a
simple +1/-1 vote.

-1 from Aura et al., at the very least until alternatives are more thoroughly considered.

-1 from Lithium. This seems very premature. All I've seen in response to legitimate concerns in hand-waving.

-1 from Stash for similar reasons. I think more time needs to be spent on this.

-1 from Yii.

// Because of exactly 12 core committee members (discussed in a separate thread) and overall lack of attention/discussion from the group before the vote.

Hi all,

**TL;DR: This vote has been cancelled. It will restart on the 10th September.**

I spoke with Larry last night and he agreed with canceling the vote.

Ultimately, if FIG 3.0 is to go through, it's going to be a huge change for the operation of the FIG and the proposal should be just right before putting it to a vote, with no open issues on the proposal itself. Especially now with an alternative option (a new organisation) being prominently discussed (suggested by Joe and Paul), members deserve a fair vote on the future of the FIG with a vote untainted by votes on process issues or resolvable unresolved content issues and with a proposal that is solid with any issues and feedback addressed. The vote will then essentially become a case of do you want the FIG group to transition to the new structure (dubbed FIG 3.0), or should other options be followed (e.g. Shutting down FIG in favor of a new organization following FIG 3, changing nothing etc.).

As previously stated, we started the discussion on this months ago and in my TL;DR mailing list post I stated a specific date to open the vote. We also then left it an extra couple of days (after the stated date) because of ongoing discussion and Paul had additional comments on the matter to add. By the time we opened the vote discussion appeared to have quietened with no new points made so it was felt it was appropriate to start the vote. This assumption appears to have been incorrect.

Larry will re-start the vote again on the 10th September to allow for any final review and comments before that point (I'd stress that feedback is really important to the proposal and it's still of course open for changes based on feedback such as when referenda was added to the proposal).

Many thanks,
Michael Cullum
