Talk:Free Geek Bylaws

Article III, Section 4 says that the council selects the board. This makes Section 10 kind of useless since, as written, it says that the board can only remove directors elected or appointed by the board. Oops! We probably should ammend this as shown here, no?

Section 10. Removal or Resignation of Directors.

Any Director of Free Geek may resign from such position by delivering written notice of the resignation to the Board, its presiding Officer, the Chairperson or secretary, but such resignation shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of Free Geek. Any Director elected or appointed by the Board may be removed by the Board, for cause, by the Directors then in office, except for the director in question, whenever in its judgment the best interests of Free Geek would be served thereby, but such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed. The election or appointment of a Director shall not of itself create contract rights.

I also wonder if that last sentence, The election or appointment of a Director shall not of itself create contract rights., belongs in this section, rather than in the section where we describe how directors are elected or appointed, but no big deal on that. RfS 12:59, 14 Dec 2005 (PST)

This amendment was passed at tonight's board meeting. RfS 19:24, 11 Jan 2006 (PST)
