[WP2] this is the document we'll use for our discussion of the IRP

[Burr, Becky]

I’ve attached a really quick mark up – only one substantive thing I saw.  This helps to frame the conversation.

Subject: Re: [WP2] this is the document we'll use for our discussion of the IRP

It was more of a normative suggestion than a disagreement.  Perhaps agreement in part/disagreement in part with each of you.  I don't think the document Becky offered up implies or will require volumes of detail, at least not in the Bylaws.  I think that all of the features of this document can be captured relatively easily in a revised Bylaw.

Since one picture is worth 1000 words (or something like that), I have revised Article IV, Section 3 of the Bylaws to capture every aspect of the document under discussion, at the level of detail generally expected in Bylaws.  It's about 500 words longer than the unrevised bylaw (which was 1400 words).  This is attached, with my changes in track changes.  This is merely a first draft, and more to demonstrate that it is manageable task we have to revise the Bylaws appropriately.

In addition we will need to provide guidance for the implementation of these bylaws, with the drafting of rules, procedures, etc., which should be done initially in WS2 (which may decide to further deputize other groups to carry out various aspects of detail work).

actually it was offered as a way of avoiding the need to introduce the
volumes of extra detail implied by Becky's paper.

Becky's paper does helpfully identify a considerable number of issues
that will need to be addressed sooner or later - and I don't think it's
even exhaustive. If we don't want to add huge amounts of new detail now,
and we don't create some form of community power to develop the IRP as I
suggest, how do you suggest we ensure those issues ever get resolved?
