Talk:Area Hosts and Volunteer Positions Vote

Transparency Concern

For transparency, I would like the Board, upon request, to provide any member (partial or full) with a list of all Volunteer Positions, who holds each position and the benefit received for each position. I believe a provision for this should be added to the official Volunteer Positions language. Thanks.

I have proposed text that addresses this and am waiting for Bry's feedback.

Bry likes it and added it.

When You Earn a Membership Benefit

While not an important enough issue to keep me from voting for this motion, there is ambiguity about when you earn your volunteer benefit. Do you earn it at the end of each month of service or at the beginning. This comes into play when you need to remove someone from their position and when the position itself is eliminated.

I should note that this ambiguity exists today.

- eviljoel

There is enough ambiguity today about paid membership dues (is it calendar month? payment date anniversary? what is the grace period?) that concerns about timing of free membership are of a lesser concern. As the Board defines the monthly compensation by vote, in the future they could presumably specify when in the month it occurs. But to address anything like this now is to open a big can of worms.

Organization

Again, not that important. I would split the area hosts and volunteer positions into subsections so that people can find applicable information quickly.

Good idea. Done.
