Annoying Proposals!

 

SA,
Hope u r fine

I just have a package of proposals,
* Changing council name to 'Meta' or 'Alpha' Team, coz it looks to be
ezagregated that such a tiny team has a "Council" :) right?
also, we are (or will) facing some over estimation, I mean council can be a
given a 'fake' glory, as a proof see Anas' last msg, you know what I mean.

* Changing 'Moderators' FG name to 'Operators', because moderation gives
full responsibility while they will be just watching for violations and so.
Resources moderation will be shared with support fg and council itself.

* Change 'Focus Group' name to something like 'Hive', no specific reason, I
just like 'hive' more :P but FocusGroup is a longer one, it's abbreviation,
'FG', can cause a bit confusion to newcomers. also, it's very hard to be
translated among ppl like it all Arabic all the Time!

* Add an FG to work on Graphics work for the team, we have many good hands
in here.

* About Membership approach: You guys built that approach of giving right
to vote and nominate because you think FGs will be *Widely* open, while
this is a good thing, but Openness in mentality is diff from in Team Work,
from History, All open Teams tragically fail, Why? coz simply when we'll
make an FG you'll find everybody interested join, but when you ask for
something to get done, it won't. So, this wastes the point of making FGs
aslan, if we're going to let this happen, then why we create FGs? why don't
we just keep those jobs to the whole team and stay living as we do?
Also, to avoid confusion, we need to think about Voting rights and
Nomination Rights *separately*.

* About Meetings: I suggest to have one physical meeting next week or so,
just to finish and check everything to get ready for launching the whole
thing. We can't have one irc and another in person meetings while we're
jammed in that short period, one last physical meeting?


I know I'm annoying, you don't need to add this to your reply! :)

Good night Good fellows.
