[Evergreen-governance-l] FW: Evergreen Foundation

Thu Aug 5 11:26:10 EDT 2010

I will contact Stephen today. 

It seems we are all fine with the composition of the committee: one voting interim committee member per initiative.  Do we need to revisit vendor status?

That makes sense to me – Elizabeth, are you up for it? 

Jenny’s email address is jennifer.turner at mnsu.edu. 

The director of PALS, Stephen Elfstrand’s email address is stephen.elfstrand at mnsu.edu.

Perhaps Elizabeth since she chairs the committee?

So if we allow one rep from each initiative, do we put a call out on the list, asking to see if there are others who would like to participate if they do not have representation? Or let sleeping dogs lie for now and accept those who come a-knockin’? 

And on the matter of PALS, it seems like nobody is opposed to letting them in so who should get back to them? I don’t mind doing it since Jenny came to me, but I don’t want to presume anything either. 

Our committee structure is so loose right now, which I’m fine with, as long as we move merrily along to our exciting conclusion …

One of the things we're doing on the RSCEL site is to capture the Evergreen Initiatives. SITKA, Michigan Evergreen, Evergreen Indiana, Bibliomation, PaLs, Sita, and KCLS all being an "initiative." Maybe we should allow for one "initiative rep" on the governance committee (for now) and eventually plan on some kind of federalist arrangement whereby we have one rep per inititaive (e.g. the senate) plus some number of reps (or votes?) based on the number of member libraries or population served (?) within each initiative.... 

Just a thought. 

P.S. Please enter info about your "initiative" at http://rscel/evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/about/projects

As a lurker on the list/committee, I should fess up that Sitka is represented alternately by James Fournie and myself, but we are clearly both terrible at calendar management so have missed - well - every meeting since the in-person in Grand Rapids. Apologies for that (I do monitor the minutes). Like BiblioMation, PaLs and etc, Sitka grows every month (36 sites live and counting!). I agree that interim committee membership should be clarified and suspect that with that clarification, publication of a guesstimated timeline towards the post-interim phase would help bystanders out.

Yes, I think that's right. I think that Monica from PLS in CA might be interested, for instance.
