[council] Vote deferral requested

Thu Feb 21 02:18:29 UTC 2019

Marie,

Would BC, and possibly other C's or SGs that intend to request a deferral,  consider requesting a deferral only on the votes of the recommendations with EPDP divergence ? For completeness, this would mean voting on Purposes 1-7, Recommendations 3-15 and 17-29, but not on recommendations 2 and 16. Or any slicing of the report that includes those two recommendations.

Note that I'm not making such request or suggesting others to do so, because I would prefer no deferral at all, but I believe this would allow some progress in this meeting and save valuable time to discuss the issues that seems to be polarizing within the community.

Also, this would need a few amendments to the motion, but it's soon even to suggest them. Just floating the idea to see if it helps.

Rubens

It is not an opportunity to re-litigate discussions and decisions made by the EPDP WG itself. Any requests for deferral and voting should be considered in this important context.
