Constitution and proposals to be voted on at Conference 2022

Hello all,

We are slightly behind in terms of the time table for the process described in the propositions above, however we are still broadly following the schedule. According to the mail I sent to Voting Members on the 8th January, the time table is now:

  • Friday 16th January - for Themes to finalise selecting the Theme Leads.

  • Friday 30 January - for the initial Steering Committee to be selected.

NB, there were some errors in the dates in the email (as shown above), however both Friday 13th January and Monday 16th January are now passed and so we should just continue. The next important date, now amended, will be Monday 30th January for nominations to the Steering Committee.

So far, the following Themes have confirmed leads:

  • Tech: Infrastructure Development - Yannick and Morris

  • Tech: Operational Management - [no one has volunteered yet]

  • Tech: Statistical Development - Demetris and Manuel

  • Process: Education - Juan Ramon

  • Process: Governance - Andrei

  • Process: Communications and Outreach - Angela and Eleanor

Thus, the Core Groups are (currently):

  • Tech: Yannick, Morris, Demetris, Manuel
  • Process: Juan Ramon, Andrei, Angela, Eleanor

As per the propositions above,

  • Each Core Group should now choose 2 or 3 people from that Core Group to be on the Steering Committee.
  • Any Voting Member of the community who is not a member of a Core Group may nominate themselves to be a member of the Steering Committee.

The deadline for these nominations is at the end of the day on Monday, 30th January.
