I noticed a couple of issues with this notice during the last board meeting, namely:

  1. What happens if resolution 3 (or resolution 2) is rejected? There should be a fall-back option.
  2. There was talk of having a second level of membership, "Friends"; see Membership/Rules. Do we want to consider this here? If we do have this level, then we need to set rates: should this be done here, or discussed at the AGM and potentially set by a board resolution?

Also, Meetings/2009 AGM/Resolutions says about the chapters agreement "The Directors may not, except with approval of the Membership by Special Resolution, terminate or amend this Chapter Agreement.". I would expect that there will be times when the WMF wants to update/modify the agreement; do these need really need to go through a Special Resolution? I notice that "the directors have received one resolution from a member"; considering all members are currently directors, this confuses me.

Finally, there seems to be some debate still about whether we're going for 25 or 26 April: have we officially decided on one of these dates yet?

Apologies for not raising these points sooner. Mike Peel 00:15, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
