Inactivity rule

Following community consultation on the proposed inactivity rule, the U4C has decided by motion to:

1. Adopt the following rules relating to inactivity and voting:

Inactivity rule

Section 3.2. of the charter (Conduct of U4C members) states that:
U4C members should:

  • Actively engage in the U4C work, and inform the U4C at the start of any absence from U4C participation.

Communicate absences or inactivity periods

  • Members may mark themselves as inactive for a period of expected absence on Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Membership. Members should also inform the other members of the committee where practical using the usual channels of communication.
  • Any U4C member who has not participated in any official U4C discussion spaces (e.g. Meta, private wiki, Mailing List, Discord) for at least two weeks may be marked as absent on the U4C membership page by any U4C member. Where practical, the date of inactivity will be set at the date of the last known communication.
  • Inactivity ends when the member next participates in a U4C discussion, unless the member has or does indicate they wish to remain inactive otherwise.

Inactivity and votes

  • A member will be considered abstained on all matters that occur during their period of inactivity.
  • In cases where the number of abstentions brings the total number of voting members below the quorum (currently 8), votes can still be taken, but can only pass if they reach the simple majority required in a situation where a full quorum of members voted.
2. To publish and maintain a list of active and inactive members on Meta-Wiki.

This motion has been adopted with 7 supporting (0xdeadbeef, Ajraddatz, Barkeep49, Civvì, Ghilt, Ibrahim.ID, Luke081515), 0 opposed and 1 abstaining (Superpes15).

Proposed inactivity rule

The U4C has been working on creating an inactivity procedure in hopes of helping us meet our quorum requirements for some future matters of work ahead of us.

Section 3.2. of the charter (Conduct of U4C members) states that:

U4C members should:

  • Actively engage in the U4C work, and inform the U4C at the start of any absence from U4C participation.

Communicate absences or inactivity periods

  • Members may mark themselves as inactive for a period of expected absence on Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Membership. Members should also inform the other members of the committee where practical using the usual channels of communication.
  • Any U4C member who has not participated in any official U4C discussion spaces (e.g. Meta, private wiki, Mailing List, Discord) for at least two weeks may be marked as absent on the U4C membership page by any U4C member. Where practical, the date of inactivity will be set at the date of the last known communication.
  • Inactivity ends when the member next participates in a U4C discussion, unless the member has or does indicate they wish to remain inactive otherwise.

Inactivity and votes

  • A member will be considered abstained on all matters that occur during their period of inactivity.
  • Despite the above, no vote may pass with fewer supporting votes than would be needed to reach a majority with a quorum of members voting for or against (i.e. >50%).
