Hi, Given the recent wave of TU applications, I think it might be a good idea to amend the TU Bylaws regarding quorum for addition of a TU. The section currently contains the following specification:
Following the announcement, standard voting procedure commences with a discussion period of 5 days, a quorum of 66%, and a voting period of 7 days.
I recommend that it be changed to this:
Following the announcement, standard voting procedure commences with a discussion period of 5 days, a quorum of 66%, and a voting period of 7 days. The quorum is counted among TUs who are active throughout both the discussion period and the voting period.
This would prevent ambiguity and possible arguments regarding the establishment of quorum. Considering how lax we seem to be when it comes to the bylaws, I doubt it would ever really be an issue, but an extra line to clarify wouldn't hurt either, plus it would provide clear logic if we ever encode the members list and tie it to the voting interface (you know, when we're all downloading the signed Duke Nukem Forever package via pacman on Hurd).
