Some decisions that should always be brought to the quorum of members:
|
||||
* Adding new members to the organization
|
||||
* Removing existing members from the organization
|
||||
* Any decision involving money or finances
|
||||
* Collaborations with outside organizations
|
||||
|
||||
## Role of the Arbiter
|
||||
The Arbiter is a member of the quorum who serves as a tie breaker in votes and also has veto privileges for the votes themselves. Both of these should be used as seldom as possible and preferably not at all.
|
||||
Once the organization reaches 10 members, a reasonable and achievable process must be established in order to replace the Arbiter if the need arises (for example: a majority vote of members can replace the Arbiter with another candidate). In any case, the Arbiter has to be an organization member.
|
||||
|
||||
### Arbiter no-confidence vote
|
||||
It is preferable that any conflict with the Arbiter, no matter how severe, be resolved amicably. However, it is acknowledged that this is not always possible. For those cases, and for the health of Zellij and its community, this is the process in order to remove a sitting Arbiter against their will:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Find another willing candidate from the existing organization members
|
||||
2. Email all the organization members to the addresses specified in this document, letting them know about the vote and the replacement candidate
|
||||
3. All the maintainers have 2 weeks to reply (privately) with a yes (remove the Arbiter) or no (do not remove the Arbiter) vote - the sitting Arbiter does not get a vote
|
||||
4. The votes should be tallied and verified by the vote initiator as well as another organization member who is not the sitting Arbiter
|
||||
5. If at least two thirds (rounded up) of the respondents vote to remove - the vote succeeds and the new Arbiter is instated in place of the sitting one
|
||||
6. The sitting Arbiter remains an organization member unless explicitly removed by a normal majority vote
|
||||
|
||||
For the removal of doubt: changing this rule itself requires a two thirds majority of maintainers as well.
