[cabf_governance] FAQ for Governance Changes

[Dean Coclin]

I found internally that something like this helps explain to those that are not involved in the day to day aspects of the forum, but are internal stakeholders that review each ballot and approve our voting posture. Sending such a document out ahead of the ballot will help answer questions that may arise.

I’m not opposed to an explanatory document, but I think an email summarizing the changes that goes out with the ballot might be more appropriate than FAQs.

Unfortunately, I will not have enough time to review the document before the call tomorrow.  Hopefully we can take some time on the call to review it.

Hello Working Group,

I was talking with Ben about the upcoming proposed changes, which are major in terms of the overall Forum. My feeling is that just sending out a ballot with a discussion period will not result in a high probability of it passing as many will ignore until the last minute and then end up abstaining or voting no because of the magnitude of the change and the fact that they hadn’t really thought about it till the end.

In order to facilitate this ballot passing, I think it would make sense to create an FAQ document that we could circulate before and with the ballot. I took a stab at creating draft questions and answers. Other questions are certainly welcome. Would love your input!

Please see attached and let’s discuss on Tuesday. If folks don’t think this is a good idea, please speak up.

Thanks!
Dean
