INTRODUCTORY MATERIAL
TITLE:
RSICC 'Form of Government' Committee
PURPOSE:
To augment the development of the documents indexed at
http://rsicc.org/Form/
YAHOOGROUPS ID
rs_form
DESCRIPTION:
A publicly viewable, member-screened, committee discussion board
specifically for the purpose of debating, proposing, amending, hammering out
the ideal forms of government for the protection of the freedoms of all mankind, as indexed at http://rsicc.org/Form/
It will consist of any members of RSICC who wish to be involved in this, as
well as any guests whose messages meet approval of the moderators as being
cogent to the discussion.
We purposely WILL NOT be voting on various planks in this process, as we
need to develop the entire system before pinning things down to a vote,
which is hard to undo. It is likely to take many years before we arrive at
something that is internally consistent, clear, comprehensive, void of
loopholes and which accomplishes the purpose of protecting freedom for all
mankind. Anything we have posted will be considered a work in progress.
Any polls we take on wording preferences will be non-binding, only for the
purpose of drawing closer to a final consensus on the entire package.
COST
This committee is going to be a primary focus of RSICC. The administration of this feature is going
to take quite a bit of time: maintaining the forum (moderating), integrating the comments,
coordinating the polls, posting updates to the website. There will also be out-of-pocket expenses
such as web hosting fees. Rather than set a fixed price for involvement in this committee, each
participant will be required to commit to carry at least a portion of the financial burden. A
recommended minimum will be $10.00 per month.
LIST SETTINGS:
Messages will be publicly viewable.
Open subscribership (for viewing the dialogue via email by those who are
interested -- the gallery). Only RSICC members and approved guests may
participate by posting messages. These will be given a level of 'moderator'
status. (There are a gradation of privileges within 'moderator' status).
Anyone (subscribed or not) may submit comments for inclusion in the forum,
but they will need to be sent through recognized forum members.
Postings even from members are moderated for relevance. Appeals can be made
for declined messages, which in most cases should be sent on through to the
list. Message moderators will be composed of RSICC facilitators who wish to
serve in that capacity, and others who may be approved to that function.
'Calendar events' feature may be viewed by the public.
