Question 1: how many foreign members were recently approved by the board?
What would we like to see included in any new membership structure? Why?
16 non CMWG / non auDA staff/ Board participants only today at the forum.
...anyone care to publish the minutes of the meeting?
Open Membership should not allow networks to capture the director elections - a Telco / registry / bank / retail associations with thousands of employees, members, should be processed accordingly and assigned appropriately to a representational group for that groups election process. [as per the Hybrid Member Model] otherwise what have we achieved? it will simply become stacked.
Question -
How do you avoid the stacking of elections with Big Networks via open membership Model?
and,
How do you create a Nominations committee independent of Board influence?
.
Plan C
It can't work without a proper vetting system. I doubt anyone can honestly believe this rush to implement a model is possible before the AGM without careful consideration & scrutiny.
It needs a management change for any model to have credibility. auDA will have issues for years to come without that. The place can't be "half fixed" with constitutional changes alone.
It raises significant corporate governance issues. The CEO is subject to a No confidence Vote and is the Chair of the very committee that he and his mates created through their bad behavior.
Yes and the removal of that resolution, presumably because the board thinks he will not win that vote, only adds to the uncertainty and lack of confidence. If the Board thought he had the members confidence they would not have removed the resolution because to win such a vote would have been a tick of approval for the embattled CEO.
