== Procedures == | |||
A Decision Panel (DP) is expected to solicit community input, discuss (in private if necessary), reach a conclusion internally, and produce a report documenting it. Anyone may submit advice to the panel. Decision Panels should be given a time deadline by SLOB. | |||
Procedures: | |||
# DP carries out a discussion directly on a public mailing list (i.e., iaep or sugar-devel or both, depending upon the topic), with a subject tag such as '[SOAS DP]'. | |||
# 1–2 DP members volunteer to moderate the public discussion, asking people to chime in (or take side-discussions to separate threads) as needed. | |||
# DP gathers people's ideas, needs, and suggestions, and a DP member records progress towards conclusions on the SL wiki. | |||
# 1–2 DP members volunteer to edit these conclusions into a thorough report, also on that wiki. | |||
# DP approves the final report (hopefully by consensus; by majority vote otherwise) and submits it to the SLOB. | |||
