Avri: I believe ALSes do have a rol in decision making: - ALSes decide who to sit in the ALAC which may or may no consults with his/her RALO on their ALAC vote. - ALSes decide who to sit in their RALO's chair whose vote can be directed by their ALSes. Having said that, - ALSes have a 25% minimum decision stake in the overall results, i.e. 5 out of a posible 20 ALAC votes on votes where RALO chairs are included - and a *posible* 66% minimum on ALAC votes, i.e. 10 out of 15 when RALO chairs are not included. -ed On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 7:25 AM, Avri Doria <avri@acm.org> wrote:
Hi,
I think it is interesting to note how willing ALAC seems to transfer decisions to ever smaller groups while remaining reluctant to give the ALSes and members any role in decision making.
When it is a matter of allowing voting rights to the ALSes, the subject is first buried and then will allowed a a brief discussion at a meeting after the new procedures have been voted on by ALAC. When it comes to changes like giving the ALT more decision making ability, it is easily done.
It is sad.

All good points from my POV and YES the power to give 'delegated authority' is important for ALAC to have ability to allocate as needs be over to the ALT
