Assembly Hall

I love the candidates this time around. Go Roc! There has been concern over how to determine how active a CSM member has been, and what rule or standard should be in effect to establish if a CSM has been in violation by inactivity. I want to suggest that the CSM could have a bi-weekly Assembly Hall topic, which is posted by each CSM member, beginning with the elected chair, and alternating down until the 14th member. I'm not doing the math atm - damnit, i just did anyway - I see there would be only 2 posts per the 14 candidates a year by this method. If we keep this by the primary 9 members, that would be 4, i suppose. If a CSM fails to comply with a set word count and post by that deadline (word-count determined by the CSM members) then that CSM will have forfeited their position to an alternate with the closest votes and is demoted to the rear of the CSM poll as the 14th member. I don't think there should be second chances. There are only 4 posts required by this method and it provides a great avenue for all of us to follow what that particular CSM chooses to discuss and be able to follow for the remaining 3/4 posts to see their gain with CCP in these related issues and provide a great place for pilot feedback via the forum. I like this idea, as it alleviates much of the stress involved in being burdened with the Secretary/Vice Secretary positions and the weight that they carry for the others in being so. Thank you for your time and patience. -Oreb

PS. Hopefully this could be placed on the launcher as "CSM # Update" or some such. CSM's that have a blog could easily link their post or paste it here.
