Just another thought on this. Perhaps there is a formulation something like
IAOC decisions are taken by a majority of the non-conflicted IAOC members who are available to vote in person, by teleconference, or by email.
so that we avoid defining a specific quorum but do require a majority of those who are not off in the woods.
wfm. So this is (I believe) an additional sentence (in addition to earlier text suggested by harald). WIth this includes, the complete text on this topic (in my edit buffer) looks like:
<section title="IAOC Decision Making" anchor="iaoc-decision-making"> <t> The IAOC attempts to reach all decisions unanimously. If unanimity cannot be achieved, the IAOC chair may conduct informal polls to determine the consensus of the group. In cases where it is necessary, some decisions may be made by voting. For the purpose of judging consensus or voting, only the "voting members" (as defined in <xref target="iaoc-membership"/>) shall be counted. If voting results in a tie, then IAOC chair decides how to proceed with the decision process. </t> <t> IAOC decisions are taken by a majority of the non-conflicted IAOC members who are available to vote in person, by teleconference, or by email. </t> <t> The IAOC decides further details about its decision-making rules. These rules will be made public. </t> <t> All IAOC decisions are minuted. Minutes are published regularly. </t>
Harald, do we see consensus (I think I do)
