While we are changing the constitution, I suggest we also change the Objects of the club, to more accurately and clearly reflect our focus. Current: The objects of the Club shall be as follows: 1. To be an organised association of students attending The University of Western Australia, and supporters, for the advancement of computer science and technologies, both at the University and in the broader community. Advancing computer science and technologies isn't was we do. We also use them. Also computer science is generally taken to be a incredibly narrow field with in the greater clould of IT/IS/Software Eng/Sys admin/DBA. etc. Computer science is more closely related to pure math, than it is to real most world programming tasks. CS is a narrow subset of what we do. Conversely technologies is much broader than what we do. While it includes things like coke machine, it also includes things like Cars, and trains. I feel much better wording would be: The objects of the Club shall be as follows: 1. To be an organised association of students attending The University of Western Australia, and supporters, to promote the advancement and use of computerized technologies, both at the University and in the broader community. I think that is much clearer. Regard Frames -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

To me it reads as "any technology that is now a computer", were as the current one covers anything related to computers. As for the addition of "use", that is already covered as using a technology is a valid way of helping advance it. But as was said in IRC, it's too late to bring up changes to the club objectives.

Some people are of the belief that consulting the members of the Door Group may yield valuable feedback on our toilings, and therefore allow us to write an even better new policy. On a completely unrelated and extremely well documented note, some people are often very wrong. This is your free fun fact of the day. Prove these fools right by submitting any "valuable" feedback you may have to committee at ucc.asn.au. I can personally guarantee it will definitely not then be automatically printed out and fed into a shredder just to make a point... probably. This policy has been written in the mind of being readily adaptable. Specific instructions and extra information for Door Group members will be compiled into a Door Group Handbook that will serve as an appendix to this policy. We eagerly await your feedback. Bonus free fun fact: Feedback is a type of noise common in many systems, and is normally filtered out to improve the quality of the system.

Policy #42: "For such a vote to be successful, all committee members present must be either in favour of the motion or abstaining from the vote." The newest copy of the constitution that I am aware of: https://www.ucc.asn.au/files/constitutionchanges2015.pdf Under #6.2: "Except where stated otherwise in the Constitution, a motion shall be passed if a majority of those present and eligible to vote cast their vote in favour of the motion." So. Why is the new door policy in contradiction of the constitution? Also, this particular rule completely fails to solve the problem we had with the previous door policy (which said "two-thirds") in three ways: 1. It is still contradicting the constitution 2. It is an even stupider rule 3. It effectively gives an individual committee member veto power. I am confused about this and hope to be enlightened about the reasons for its inclusion upon reading the next minutes. In other feedback, the remaining 48 options are not stupid. That's my feedback. My alternative suggestion is to remove that number and keep the others. I recommend you do a vote (in which all committee members present must be either in favour of the motion or abstaining from the vote). Yours in closed loop, [SZM] * Bonus fact: Feedback is often intentionally added to control many different types of system, to reduce the effect of disturbances and improve stability. Negative feedback is particularly common in analog electronics.
