Since AOL has already picked its representation, it seems to me they should not vote on the community half of the core team. Not that their votes would necessarily be wrong or bad or have any nefarious intention, but more in the interest of fairness, as has been said before. Just my opinion.
This brings up another question: what constitutes a voting member? Does one company get 1 vote, or does each employee at a company get a vote? For myself, if rather short term limits are put on the members anyway, I'd be satisfied with listing certain criteria to be a team member, and letting any individual meeting those criteria participate on the core team. If there are too many nominees, pick out of a hat. The assumption going in is that they are all qualified. I don't think there will be tons of people fighting over this job because of the time required. Jim > On Friday, November 8, 2002, at 04:27 PM, Scott S.
