I would be in favor of removing the notification period IF we can improve the board/membership voting tool along the lines that I requested earlier this week -- that is, making it more explicit what tasks are available to be taken by a member. If we could also generate feeds from this list of polls so that members could simply subscribe to a list of tasks, I would be all in favor of the 3 day notice period (which seems necessary given our clunky way of getting votes).
