(Copy/paste from email sent to foundation mailing list)

In our statutes, it's said that the council has right to accept or not the membership.
We should create a Membership committee that would be set up for

  • managing process of memberships registration.
  • helping members to be active in the association and feel good in it
  • manage membership renewal
  • give advice to the council on how to manage particular cases (conflicts, trouble makers, non-renewal of ghosts members etc)
  • protecting the association against "sabotage"

I meant to click "show More", but hit the "edit discussion" link instead. :-)

Delegating member management to Membership Committee

proposal by Raphaël Jadot Closed Sun 14 Apr 2013 11:02AM

For avoiding micro-management, what do you think about delegating membership management to the membership committee?
If you agree on the principle, we can discuss at the process (for example how to be in it, how to manage big decisions such as excluding someone or asking someone to become a honor member)

that was my initial suggestion. I agree with a condition, the formal acceptance is made in weekly council meeting. this means that MC takes care of all, and then in council meeting, just say: We have this X members, anything to oppose the entrance?"
