A new draft is being prepared, (stemmed from your draft, thank you,
Srikanth), incorporating additional details conforming to international
standards for non-profit  organizations. Within a day or two, this draft
will be presented in the chapter Wiki for review, discussion  and
suggestions by any members (and even interested community members and other
stakeholders).

The draft will be retrieved back to the EC and will be finally vetted and
approved as a standard core document during the upcoming Board Meeting on
20,21 September 2014 at Bangalore.

Also, you mentioned a board meeting in September. Does this indicate the

The board meeting on 20,21 at Bangalore is a board meeting. It will take up
and decide on the matter of AGM / Elections in such a way as to conduct the
same at the earliest possible date,  as early as the stipulated timelines
and documentation requirements (mainly completion of Audit Report and
Annual Report) will allow. It will also review and decide on the voting
eligibility requirements of all chapter members who are members of the
chapter. Further, it will decide on several administrative policies, of
which, a major one will be the feasibility of enlistment of all members
(with bare minimum personal data) on the chapter wiki. Some of these
decisions will be acted upon immediately after the meeting.

The EC is also seriously corroborating on the feasibility of publishing
every minutes and resolutions passed during its business except for the
ones require confidential privacy.

In the meanwhile, we also intend to invite suggestions for modifications
and improvements in the bye-laws and other documents via discussions on the
member wiki. Such suggestions, will be finely filtered and drafted,
presented and voted upon during the AGM  and will be passed if approved by
a two third majority.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] WMIN shutdown ?

2014-09-12 Thread Pradeep Mohandas
hi,

From http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:India_Community_Consultation_2014,
it seems that a few more members have been co-opted into the WMIN EC.
Dr B Ekbal from Kottayam and and Nikhil Kawle from Bangalore.

This is FYI since the Chapter EC has not officially announced this on this list.

warm regards,
Pradeep

2014-09-11 Thread Srikanth Ramakrishnan
Viswa,
Prior to the departure of several EC members,  resolution had been passed
to accept the draft Coi policy that was done by me with Karthik's help.
Please ensure that it is implemented.
Also, you mentioned a board meeting in September. Does this indicate the
AGM or just the four core EC members.
I say four because Nikita had not renewed her membership as of the first of
July 2014 thus ceasing to be a member of the chapter let alone an EC
member.
Please look into these matters.

Dear all,

The newly restructured EC has held a telecon tonight (September 10th). We
have decided to meet in person at Bangalore on 20,21 & 22 September 2014
with a large number of tasks in hand.

Due to several reasons, principally among them, a delay in the completion
of Financial Audit Reports, we are forced to postpone the AGM and Elections
by a few weeks, following the recommendation of our legal and financial
consultants.

The above board meeting, to be held in Bangalore, will corroborate and
decide on the earliest possible date to conduct the AGM and General
Elections considering all formal timeline constraints. We will also meet-up
with the Election Committee, our legal and financial consultants and other
concerned agencies.

We are also about to present a few drafts at the Chapters wiki and invite
amendments, modifications and improvements in our constitutional and policy
documents. This will include a 'Conflict of Interest' policy, a basic
framework on the formation of an Advisory committee, simplification of
membership application processes, grant process, publication of necessary
Membership data without compromising the privacy concerns etc.

We will be releasing more detailed info along these lines within a few
days. Till then, Please standby.

Thank you

It is really shocking to see no reply. This matter is of concern.
Even reporting that 'no one knows from us, we will find out and will let
you know soon' etc. or a mail that 'we have received the mail' is welcome.

How many months are required to get some answers  from the EC to some
simple queries?

Modifying some statements from the light bulb series statements : "
How many EC members are required to answer members queries? "

Added Sowmyan inthe mail in a hope that he can help getting answers from EC.
All others are also welcome to help getting replies from EC.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] WMIN shutdown ?

Adding email ids of EC members in the mail.
Anybody from the EC, please respond.

At least inform us about the renewals.
Should I send my renewal form to Moksh or Karthik or to CIS office or
to some other place?

As Arjuna rightly said, there is a regulatory obligation on the
current EC. At least respond to the points related to the same.

I can see at least some EC members posting on social networks. Can not
understand the reasons for not responding here.

If noone is interested in listening to the community, better shutdown WMIN.

Thanks Sudhanwa for bringing up this topic on the list. As a co-founder  of
the chapter, I  also share your concerns.

I had a brief phone conversation with Moksh Juneja, President, WMIN couple
of days ago. I shared my concerns and requested him to take necessary steps
to complete the regulatory requirements like audit, FCRA report submission,
membership renewals, elections at the earliest. I also alerted him about
the deadline for letter of intent for FDC participation for the next year
(date
revised to Jun 8, 2014), if the WMIN is to continue with FDC process. I
offered my help to the extent  possible. Moksh responded positively.

As all the  Executive Committee members have signed the code of conduct of
the chapter  which
specifically mandates them to  conduct the chapter affairs  consistent with
its purpose and  to advance Chapter's interests and also makes them
accountable to general body and community,  I hope that EC takes  prompt
action in this regard.

Sincerely

Arjuna Rao Chavala
Co-founder, Wikimedia India Chapter
