Hi,
As I count, this resolution to delay the decition of the DPL
of the withdrawal of the Package Policy Committee delegation has
received 2K sponsors, which means that ยง 4.2.2.2 of the constitution
to be called into action.
,----
| 4. The Developers by way of General Resolution or election
| 4.1. Powers
| 3. Override any decision by the Project Leader or a Delegate.
| 4.2. Procedure
| 2. Delaying a decision by the Project Leader or their Delegate:
| 1. If the Project Leader or their Delegate, or the Technical
| Committee, has made a decision, then Developers can override
| them by passing a resolution to do so; see s4.1(3).
| 2. If such a resolution is sponsored by at least 2K Developers,
| or if it is proposed by the Technical Committee, the
| resolution puts the decision immediately on hold (provided
| that resolution itself says so).
| 4. If the decision is put on hold, an immediate vote is held to
| determine whether the decision will stand until the full vote
| on the decision is made or whether the implementation of the
| original decision will be delayed until then. There is no
| quorum for this immediate procedural vote.
`----
So, an immediate procedural vote has to be held to determine
whether the decision will stand until the full vote, on the decision
is made or whether the implementation of the original decision
(i.e. withdrawl of delegation from the policy delegates) will be
delayed until then.
I am proposing the following draft ballot for this immediate
vote, while I go about setting up the voting infrastructure. The
vote page containing the details of this general resolution is not
yet up, but as soon as it is it would be found at:
