Voting on Appointments to Committee Chair Positions

[John Jones <100h@rewrite.aisboard.org>]

Until we change the AIS By-Laws (if we do), it is incumbent upon us all to operate within the constraints placed upon us by those By-Laws. We can, however, change the standing rules under which we operate.

In consideration of the issues at hand and in consultation with President White and Secretary Snyder, I move that:

At such times other than regularly scheduled meetings of the AIS Board of Directors appointments to committees and/or committee chair positions requested by the AIS President shall be submitted by the AIS Secretary as a motion made on AISDiscuss@aisboard.org. In furtherance of the general superintendence of the affairs of the AIS, the deliberative period for said motions shall be 24 hours from the time the motion is seconded after which the motion shall be presented by the AIS Secretary on AISVote@aisboard.org for voting. Pursuant to the current standing rules on electronic voting, for all other motions the deliberative period shall remain five days.
