I was just wondering when this change from "old member site" to new "one we
have used since early 2015", was there a consensus and a subsequent motion
to change from old link to new link?


The decision was made at the level of the Steering Committee, which
unanimously approved the sites at the time.


Were these changes brought to the BM
one by one, line by line and presented to the BM to use KBDM to form an
opinion?


No one, including Steve, suggested this should be done at the time, but
it's not a bad idea.



 It seems to me Jane, you are looking for accolades
and credit for your work, which in my book is not principalities over
personalities.  Sounds like forcing solutions and a private agenda.


Apologies if that is how I'm coming across. I was just trying to say that
while yes, I have invested a lot here, that isn't the primary reason I feel
the sites should be voted on.




In fact the very word you use as "transferring" indicates to me a very one
sided transferring of information without taking the rest of us and what we
would like for our website, into account.   Sounds controlliing and we were
here on ASP were not offered
a choice.


That is correct. My intent is to remedy that now. If you will read my
motion, the intent is to use the current site as a starting point, with all
future changes to be approved by the Business Meeting.



"You say you "ALWAYS" welcome collaboration".  I understand that you may
think that you are collaborating, But making decisions by yourself on the
website content, was not your job description.  Your job description as
webmaster was only concerned with design.  Not deleting, changing, nor
adding content.  It was not your responsibility to take on changing the
content of website for the group.  Period.


I was new to my position at the time. I was given permission by the SC to
transfer the sites to WordPress after having issues with the older sofware.
In the process, I added some content and did a little reorganizing. I then
presented it to the Steering Committee for review and made a few suggested
changes. I created a poll and the SC unanimously approved the sites. The LA
changed the settings so that the new links appeared at the bottom of every
email. No one said "Hey wait! You shouldn't have added this or rearranged
that!" If they had, I would have removed the content I added and put
everything back in line with the old site. So no, I didn't just do all this
on my own and it wasn't until 2 years later that anyone suggested that I
may have over-stepped my bounds.
