As the SGM notification tells us:

(quote)
The Board regards passing the first motion as a statement of "no
confidence".
(end quote)

IMHO, by including this statement in the notification the Board has
increased the risk that the outcome of the SGM will have lasting negative
effects on the Society. I also suspect that the effects will be difficult to
reverse once they have taken hold. For me, that fact makes the need to
understand the issues even more important.

I also expect that the vast majority of votes cast will be mailed in (as
opposed to being cast at the SGM itself). For that reasons, I see a need to
conduct the debate now! I suspect that this forum still includes less than
300 members. I would be interested in hearing any ideas others may have for
ensuring that the debate takes place prior to the deadline for mailing in
ballots.
