I guess it was 50%. ennael ? rda ? 20:48:01 <misc> "Le quorum de l'assemblée générale est fixé à 50% des membres présents et représentés. Chaque membre ne peut cumuler plus de 2 pouvoirs. 20:48:42 <rda> yep, here it is 20:48:53 <misc> the quorum is fixed to 50% of the present member and represented 20:50:18 <misc> so for epoll, that mean 50% of voters ? 20:50:35 <rtp> misc: the problem (iirc) is that it doesn't mean what we think but ianal 20:51:23 <ennael> ? 20:54:06 <misc> well, we can fix the language later, I guess ? 20:55:28 <wobo> Total = 17, absent=8, <50% 20:56:50 <misc> well, for epoll, we can consider that we need to have 50% of people who were asked to vote ? 20:57:48 <wobo> I thought we will ask all members (17) to vote? So we must hope that more than 8 will vote. 20:58:01 <misc> yes 20:58:17 <wobo> We can't know that before vote is closed 20:58:27 <misc> we can't be sure 20:58:45 <wobo> yes, but there#s no way out of this 20:59:17 <misc> with epoll, we can see how many people have voted during the vote 20:59:21 <wobo> if we don't get more than 8 votes the poll has to be repeated 20:59:39 <rtp> if we use epoll, it's clear that we'll have to wait for the end of the vote to know the number of "ballots" 21:00:36 <wobo> that would be before the GA, right? So, if epoll fails we could vote on location, we are more than 50% present 21:00:53 <misc> wobo: yup 21:01:26 <rtp> wobo: if we vote on location, how do you handle votes of people not being there ? 21:03:05 <t_m_b> I guess being over 50% you dont need to care... 21:03:19 <t_m_b> but lets make sure epoll wont fail... 21:03:29 <wobo> well, I suppose people who will not vote via epoll are not interested to vote anyway. I further think that they are among those who will not attend (that#s an assumption, I know) 21:03:49 <misc> some may already be in holidays ( like coling ) 21:04:07 <wobo> ah, you mean offline? 21:04:11 <misc> yes 21:04:19 <wobo> ok, right. 21:04:25 <misc> well, i can send a sms to coling to vote :) 21:04:30 <rtp> wobo: I've already been asked by someone not being able to attend how it can be handled so this assumption is wrong 21:05:24 <wobo> rtp: well, I said, it's an assumption. 21:05:55 <misc> ok so epoll, and mke sure enough people vote ? 21:06:04 <t_m_b> yep 21:06:06 <wobo> yes 21:06:26 <misc> ok, so last part 21:06:33 <misc> damsweb: financial report ? 21:07:28 <damsweb> misc: yep will be done during GA as rtp wrote in the convocation, no soucy 21:07:41 <rda> have to go.
