    3. If David wishes to withdraw his motion in favor of resubmitting it with the specific mail lists named and the conflict of interest it resolves noted, I will withdraw my second. Linda K. Lewis SWSC.CC -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Pauli Smith Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2010 7:15 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [BOARD] Motion 2009/10-27 Removal of List Moderators That Serveon the Grievance Committee Actually David, for me, your motion is not all that clear in the way that it is written. I can see why there is some confusion as to what lists it is referring to. When I read it, it appears to say that anyone serving on the Grievance Committee, who also moderate a list have to be dismissed as a moderator of said list. You do specify any usgenweb lists, including usgenweb-discuss, but many people can and apparently are, interpreting that to mean any list that is connected in any way to the usgenweb, including the state lists run by SC's. Perhaps the motion needs to be slightly rewritten so it is clearer as to what lists are included and what lists are not. right now, it says all lists, which is way too open to misinterpretation. Perhaps it would better read as usgenweb lists controlled or maintained under the AB, such as usgenweb-discuss, uesgenweb-se, yadda, yadda, yadda. >>"I move all moderators of any usgenweb lists including >>usgenweb-discuss be dismissed from such positions if they are >>currently serving in the Grievance Committee as member or as mediator >>or arbitrator effectively immediately.>> Pauli Smith NENC CC Rep. ----- Original Message ----- From: W David Samuelsen<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2010 11:06 AM Subject: Re: [BOARD] Motion 2009/10-27 Removal of List Moderators That Serve on the Grievance Committee the motion does NOT apply to the state coordinators. You're confusing the motion with the state coordinators. The motion is very clear about the lists: usgenweb-discuss, usgenweb-se, usgenweb-sw, usgenweb-nw, usgenweb-ne and any other lists controlled or maintained under direction of the AB.
