Bravo Ryan for bringing this forward, I will not be voting for any of the structures for the following reasons.
1. At last nights meeting there was no discussion of the actual positions on the team. 2. There has been no discussion on the direction & goals of the team (of which IMO are very important when deciding on how a team is to be structured & governed) If the above are addressed then it comes down to whether we want a 'Democratic' process where candidates are voted for or a 'Meritocracy' process where people are appointed. Models 1 & 1a are clearly 'Meritocracy' and as it stands now, people are appointed indefinitely until they resign their positions. This is the current model. Model 3 is ONE 'Democratic' representative model based on regional/city groups. As there is no 'goal' of developing regional/city groups then this model is irrelevant. There are not many reasons why we cannot have a 'Team' elected to positions based on merit every 12 months. When people nominate for positions they can put up their credentials, why they want the position and what they can do for the Ubuntu-au Loco. As stated above, when we have a discussion on our goals, we can talk about positions, then we can talk about an election/appointment process. This is just my opinion and I know that others will disagree. Regards, Andrew G.
