Seconded.
I also don't see a big with discussing both proposals at the same time. If Allyson and Betsy want to have the discussion and vote combined I would like that.
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Seconded.

I think I have all my secondsies.
I am very against discussing both at the same time. Let's run Betsy's, and then Allyson.
I'll go on a ballot with Betsy any day of the week and twice on Sundays, with a hunk of bread to slurp up the gravy goodness.
I'd rather do Allyson's now. The grandfathering thing just does not seem to be getting proposed in a voteable form -- we've been waiting on it, IIRC, since March. If someone does the proposal, I'd say do it first; as it is, Allyson has the proposal and the seconds. let's do it. Grandfathering can wait a week.
So we're opening lightbulbs for Betsy, and then next week we'll do up the Timster?
so. confused.
But Betsy a) proposed first b) got seconds c) is searching the thread for the precise language now.
I say when she has the language, we go with that, and when that's done, it's Minearville, ahoy!
Lyra, I was waiting for a list of all decisions to which it would apply, and also for the previously queued votes to occur.
Here's the original proposal. [link]
Here's Cindy's Nilly. Cindy "Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier" Mar 28, 2003 5:57:04 am EST
The proposal, therefore, is:
All decisions made between December 20, 2002 and March 20, 2003 [was within the last three months] are subject to a waiting period before being reopened. This waiting period shall be the standard Buffista post-vote waiting period, and shall begin from March 20, 2003 [was the passage of this proposal].
By the time grandfather proposal gets voted on, many of the "old decisions" will have hit or nearly hit the 6 month moratorium anyway. Just something to think about.
