[Businessmtg] Fwd: Off Topic - Question? Is this a controversial topic?

[Laura M]

As I was gently reminded, this OT thing is a controversial issue, and we
cannot make a decision on it. Here is the procedure of what needs to be
done regarding limiting OT messages.
Controversial Issues

Issues which would result in a major change to ASP or are controversial in
nature will have a delayed discussion and voting procedure:

*Month 1: * Announcement of topic followed by truncated discussion to
illuminate issues.  Discussion limited to 1 week.
*Month 3:*  Full discussion of topic.  Discussion may be extended to
following month(s) as needed.
*Month 5+:* Voting on motion.
So where does this leave us?

Let's see if anyone has any other ideas. Then the steering committee can
decide if a committee should be put together to formulate a suggestion,
which would then come before the business meeting.

Any other ideas that people would like to air?

Hugs,
Laura M
