Good examples of the advantage of having predrafted motions without seconds and sometimes even without a mover are motions related to the initiation of a PDP. Personally, I think the benefits of having predrafted motions without movers or seconds exceed any problems that may cause. Just my opinion. Clearly, that should be done with care to avoid overcomplicating our business. Chuck

Thanks Avri ... I'm fine with a wiki as a tool to aid drafting. Its just that by the eve of a meeting I would like to be clear on what motions stand a chance of success and command support.
I see no merit in consulting my constituency on a motion that may never actually be valid - especially if there are other better / simpler ones there in place.
We need to be clear on what we strive for, not hedge our bets and sow confusion along the way. That's all
