It's nice to see that a board member isn't trigger-happy to wield his power, but the truth (I think, I am not a lawyer, nor am I a banana) is that the board has the power (and authority) to make whatever decisions they wish as long as it doesn't contradict decisions passed by the assembly, or what is written in the takanon. So if the takanon calls the Amuta "free software and open source", the vaad can't change that on its own. But unless there was ever a decision of the assembly otherwise or the takanon mentions it, the vaad can change the logo, the appearance of the website, or whatever, at a whim. If the new logo contradicts the purpose of the amuta (e.g., it looks too much like Microsoft's logo) the comptrollers can shout and call an assembly. The 5 people on the vaad were voted to actually do things, and not hide behind "we can't decide anything, the assembly has to decide it". Most Amutot have only 1-2 assemblies a year (it may be easier with electronic votes, but I am not sure the registrar will ok that), and the vaad needs to make day-to-day decisions like how the web site will look. -- Nadav Har'El | Sunday, Dec 29 2002, 25 Tevet 5763 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Drink varnish and you'll get a lovely http://nadav.harel.org.il |finish. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
