Proposals

Proposals are implemented with the following criteria:

  • Proposals must start with “PROPOSAL”, and be posted in the #*_orgzr_announce organizer channel on the DevOps KC Slack. The proposal should also mention @channel to ensure all members are exposed to the proposal
  • Voting will be open for 48 hours unless:
    • The proposal immediately passes if there are 4 or more +1’s not including the proposer
    • The proposal immediately fails if there are 4 or more -1’s not including the proposer
    • The proposer removes the proposal before it passes or fails
  • Voting on a proposal is discouraged if you don’t hold a strong opinion
  • Agreement will be noted by heavy plus sign Slack reactions
  • If 48 hours have passed without any -1’s and without 4 or more +1’s, then the proposal will pass
  • Disagreements will be noted by heavy minus sign Slack reactions
  • If a -1 is added, then a cooling off period is required
    • The time of dissent will be noted in the comments by the dissenter
      • If no comment is made, then the start time is the proposal creation time
      • If a comment is made, then the start time is the comment time
    • From the dissent start time, the dissenter will have 48 hours to convince others to add their dissent
    • All dissenting comments must be acknowledged and preferably addressed by the proposer
    • At the end of the 48 hours, the proposal will pass if there aren’t 4 -1’s
