I'd agree, there should be redundancy in all our critical roles like this.

I would also agree with @mattnoyes here that SC needs the ability to enter into contracts and pay invoices in its own right. It isn't fair on individual members to have to provide ownership of and liability for SC assets and infrastructure, not to mention legally fraught. Mayel's recent depature resulting in an urgent need to rehome our software adds considerable emphasis this point.

SC needs to purchase services urgently. I don't know if we can get this ability quickly, but if not we need to rectify it as soon as possible, because otherwise someone else literally has to pay.

There's a thread essentially about this here:

@fabianhjr Sorry I'd been meaning to create this Finance Tech Ops Team proposal for a while. We can still move to give temp access to Open Collective to @matthewcropp or other if we think there is a risk that @ntnsndr would be unavailable in the event an expenditure is required before this proposal passes through FWG and full group.

Modification suggestions welcomed.

No worries @fabianhjr thank you for the kick in the butt to get this done.

Hey @robertbenjamin, not sure if you can edit the poll type but maybe a check for volunteers instead of a poll?

Sure. I'll see if I can just change the type. If not I'll re-post. I used the Check poll because it allows for members to put theirs (or others) name in as well as vote for multiple choices. I used it in the Tech ops this way before to expedite the process so there didn't have to be 2 polls for every position type but as there is only one for Finance maybe doing the Volunteer one first and the voting one second is the better way to go.
