Hi all,

Wobo helped out with this link:

So, we have one rep on the council, and we decide who that will be -
normally it's the team lead, but it can be anyone. That's one vote on
council for each team. Anyone can attend a council meeting - we just
get one vote, and our nominated representative does the voting.

The idea of lead/deputy is that we have coverage even if the lead
person has to dip out temporarily - so I think it's good if we can have
2 people, because in the last 3 months I've been noticeably absent due
to moving country. Hopefully that's going to improve from now on, but
it's still good to have 2 people covering things.

Cheers!

Oh ok one person for each position unless wobo is wrong.

I agree it's good to have a leader and a deputy leader to help each other, but having two council representatives could be quite good to have at times as well really. 

In fact I was thinking about it earlier how at least in my experience group things tend to have or may have two people for non leading positions.

Also at times a council representative can't easily attend a council meeting, because of for example the time they are at in their time zone, or can't attend it at all, because of being busy with something else. In these kind of situations having two council representatives for a team could be very useful. Even if the other representative is just a substitute for when the main representative is not at the meeting. Or even if the main representative does most of the representing in a council meeting with the other as well.

As for the council mailing list I assume both representatives should be sending emails to it if their are two.

Anyway it seems we will be voting for only one council representative and so in that case my vote is for Trish or myself.
