- The Leadership Team would only be involved in the CRT process if a sanction is being proposed.
We discussed several different options which included having the CRT decide and impose sanctions without involving the leadership.
Based on the experience of other projects and the fact that this is a new process, it was decided that when a sanction is being proposed it should be (at least until these processes are tried and tested) discussed and accepted by the Leadership Team by a majority vote, having heard the recommendations from the CRT.
The way this has worked for example in the KDE community is that the whole board discussed and implemented any sanctions for the first few years, and then they devolved that responsibility entirely to the working group (equivalent of our CRT) at a later date, who now manage the process internally and report to the board monthly with any sanctions that have been imposed or lifted that month.
I hope that explains why we chose to adopt this route in the initial stages of rolling out a new process where there hasn't been one before.
If the Leadership Teams feel that the CRT should be able to make those sanctions without the consultation and voting of the rest of the Leadership at this early stage then absolutely, that can be discussed as part of the CRT's operating procedures, but this should not hold up the voting on the new Code of Conduct. Please post comments/thoughts on the operating procedures document - request access if you need it.- The reason we are asking for a vote from the Leadership Teams is to officially update the Code of Conduct with the one we have proposed. This is the process we were asked to follow at Cancun in the LT summit (to open for feedback then prepare a proposal to be voted by the Leadership Teams).
- The Conflict of Interest policy has been updated to include leadership team members, whereas in the past it was only used for OSM board members.
The current document is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wK8DIojOiZGLLVNTYlgxDbKaF-sVyeHP74lVvO1uD4s/edit?usp=sharing- Thank you for the suggestions Tessa, at this point we've already been through four weeks of leadership and community feedback so this is the version we were proposing for adoption.
I'm not sure that as we've already requested the voting to start, that we can now make substantial changes to the document without re-starting the process again.
I've incorporated the grammatical issues you raised and pointed you at the forum where some of the other issues you raise have already been discussed.- Martijn, we updated the Code of Conduct but in doing so it was suggested we create a one-page document and operating procedures for the conflict resolution team (which we had originally included in the Code of Conduct itself).
It was also identified that there is currently no Conflict of Interest policy in use for the leadership in general, only OSM.
If there are any issues with a specific document then people could raise those issues, and/or give a +1/-1 for each of the documents if there are any issues with specific documents.
If the Leadership Teams feel that any or all of those documents need to go through a separate approval process then by all means I'll send three separate vote requests in addition to this one. Please let me know if that is the route people would prefer us to take.I hope that answers some of the questions, thank you for taking the time to review this in detail and voice the issues that have been raised.
Kind regards,
Ruth Cheesley
