I'm the chairman of a community-owned non-profit[1] limited company here in Charlbury. We have recently changed our Articles (for entirely unavoidable reasons). It was a glorious pain in the arse. I would strongly recommend that the articles should be the most permissive possible. Unless you have paid admin staff, this sort of thing is horrid to sort out. If you've got to the stage of resorting to the articles to resolve member/director conflict, then something went very wrong months ago and you should have dealt with it then. Besides, there are much more impactful things people could be doing to advance the state of OSM in the UK than faffing around with companies legislation, right? cheers Richard [1] not deliberately, we just don't make any money -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/UK-Chapter-Directors-Powers-tp5872300p5872421.html Sent from the Great Britain mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
