Can you add my support to the constitutional process and I am
happy to vote for the constitution that gets the widest support of
the group. I hope that this gives the necessary structures for us
to move on.
I second all this, and will be there in hopefully just under an hour!
sorry...

hi all,
I have put up yet another proposal for a constitution - nothing new,
actually, but an integration of articles 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 (amended),
8 and 9
of FreeCultureConstitution3 and articles 3 and 4 of
FreeCultureConstitution1 (unfortunately I wrote this wrong in the
notes to
the first revision committed to the wiki):
http://www.freeculture.org.uk/FreeCultureConstitution4
It should retain the liveliness of Constitution3, but with the
*potential*
to have a well defined structure and membership if needed as
outlined in
Constitution1.
After having had the very positive experience of seeing
Deptford.TV run in
March, I am still convinced that local groups should be fairly
independent, and that organizations such as ORG are better at
dealing with
some issues (PR and all) but if we use some structure to
coordinate all
the activities and discussions instead of having a structure for
structure's sake, a semi-structured organization like the one
proposed in
Constitution4 can hopefully help.
Of course things will get done at the local level only if there
is a clear
vision, enough resources, and so on - but if individuals are
members of
FC-UK, as opposed to local groups, I see little possibility of wrong
decisions/bad structure of FC-UK hindering local activities.
Just my 5p of course.
Unfortunately I won't be able to attend this Saturday's meeting
(we have
parliament elections in Italy); if voting will occur and proxies are
accepted (I understand this is a chicken-and-egg problem, and
therefore
will accept any decision), Adnan will be the person authorized to
vote on
my behalf.
