New draft: (I don't agree to this yet) 1. Purpose of the Foundation This is a public contract named the Charity Foundation. The purpose of this contract is to let assets that are not otherwise used come to benefit the ones who deserve or need them. Parties to this contract are known as Helpful. Players can join this contract by announcement. Players can leave this contract by announcement. Helpful players can amend this contract without member objection.
2. The Founder The Charity Foundation's Founder is a switch with values 'none' and all Helpful players. Any Helpful player can flip it to any value with Agoran consent among the Helpful. Its default value is the Helpful player who has been so continuously for the longest time. 3. Acquisition of assets The Founder should now and then intend to transfer assets from the Lost and Found Department to the Charity Foundation, if possible. Helpful players shall not object to such intents. Helpful players who have assets they don't use should transfer them to the Charity Foundation, if possible. 4. Distribution of assets If, at the beginning of a quarter, the Charity Foundation owns any assets, the Founder shall in a timely fashion outline a Gift Plan of how those assets are to be distributed. Any other Helpful player can also outline such a Gift Plan. Assets should be given to (or, if such transaction are prohibited or inappropriate, put to use for the good of) the players (if any) who have helped Agora significantly or players in great need. The Founder can then, with Agoran consent among the Helpful, act on behalf of the Charity Foundation to transfer assets from it as outlined by such a Plan. The Founder shall outline as many Gift Plans as necessary until consent is reached for one. 5. Maintaining the Foundation Helpful players can, without Helpful objection, act on behalf the Charity Foundation to perform any action that is possible and legal for it to perform. All Helpful players shall act collectively to ensure that it fulfills its obligations. If the Charity Foundation is a player, it shall never vote anything but PRESENT on any decision and should not take on obligations that are not necessary for its cause. The Helpful should do their best to ensure that the Charity Foundation is permitted to own the kinds of assets that make for good charity. -- -Tiger
