CC Decision MakingTeam

On the question of whether or when a quorum is needed, voting process, relationship to Lazy consensus.

Types of decisions:

  1. Elections
  2. Policy
  3. Establishing/changing a Process
  4. Actions
  5. Fiscal decisions 

Quorum:  make sure, that for any kind of decisions ("lazy consensus" or other if necessary) that a certain number of members is present. 

Decision: 9 members should be the minimum number of members making decisions

Discussion: 

  • Are there decisons, where a more formal process is needed? e.g. fiscal decisions, changes in government structure, ....
  • "lazy consensus"  - make sure, that decisions are made and recorded - after a constructive exchange of opinions
  • Definition: https://community.apache.org/committers/lazyConsensus.html
  • Making decisions is depending on having enough information and time for exchange in advance
  • Remark: If we have some async decisions then we need to define a timeframe and comms channel



Recruiting within the FOLIO community

Are there any guidelines that should be developed for recruiting members within the FOLIO community - i.e. Organization A recruits an active FOLIO participant from Organization B. 

  • Onboarding is still an effort for the person and the institution
