:: Justin, to address your second point, I agree that guests are required to follow the membership agreement. But the Draft 3 vote text does not modify the membership agreement explicitly. All it does is require members (not guests) to honor the space's contracts (which as Jason said is seriously problematic) and lets members curate a list of contractual obligations the members must follow. It doesn't somehow create House Rules that apply to everyone. It therefore only affects members and not guests. --[[User:Rdpierce|Rdpierce]] ([[User talk:Rdpierce|talk]]) 12:20, 11 May 2015 (CDT)

I am a little concerned by the implication of this version of the language that members are individually responsible for fulfilling the organization's obligations. I don't know if there are situations in which this policy language would cause an issue (are the policies the membership votes on binding in any context outside of our organization? I don't know), but I have to wonder what this vague assertion "gets us". --[[User:Dbever|Dbever]] ([[User talk:Dbever|talk]]) 14:01, 11 May 2015 (CDT)

:: During the previous meeting with the directors, several member's maintained that writing policies to comply with insurance was required for the health of the organization because member's were not under any obligation to comply with with insurance.  I don't agree with that idea, and feel that member's do need to comply with insurance rules. Because this disagreement affects issues appropriate for a vote of the board of directors, I'd like on side to become the clear winner. --[[User:Hef|Hef]] ([[User talk:Hef|talk]]) 14:34, 11 May 2015 (CDT)
