[ogb-discuss] OGB powers

[Stephen Lau]

In reference to Alan Burlison's post from last Thursday:
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2007-May/030537.html

It does seem to be somewhat conflicting that section 6.1 states that the 
OGB has the power to manage the business and affairs of the OpenSolaris 
Community, while section 3.1 states that Members have the right to vote 
on Community-wide decisions.

Alan's post was in reference to the new project instantiation policy the 
OGB approved as OGB/2007/001.

Should the policy be put in place based on the OGB vote of approval?  Or 
should it be put to a community-wide vote?

The bigger issue is: Alan is right, we do need a clearer demarcation of 
what the OGB has the responsibility to do, and what needs approval from 
the larger community.

cheers,
steve
