The following decision, which was taken in private today, is now made public in accordance with our statutes:

Hi,
Stephan rightly pointed me that there is no vote allowing Gabor to sign the contract for the community diner. So I’m calling for the vote now:

  • Allow Gabor to sign the contract with Trofea Grill Restaurant UBJUDA in Budapest

Contract is stored here
[REDACTED]
Invoice for the deposit is here
[REDACTED]

The Board of Directors at the time of voting consists of 7 seat holders (not including deputies). In order to be quorate, the vote needs to have 1/2 or more of the Board of Directors members, which gives 4.

A total of 5 Board of Directors members have participated in the vote.

The vote is quorate.

A quorum could be reached with a simple majority of 3 votes.

Result of vote:
5 approvals: Eliane, Paolo, Mike, Osvaldo, Sophie
0 abstain
0 disapprovals

Decision: The proposal has been accepted.

On the redacted parts (which are Nextcloud URLs) we need to check with the conference organizers if these can be made public.

I wonder why again two directors didn’t participate in the vote.
I’m puzzled what they think their role is in the board. I heard in the past that they represent the LibreOffice community (or an important part of it) in the board. But because this vote is about the community diner (at the LibreOffice conference) that former statement about representation of the community proofed wrong.

I think both directors, which again (like regularly in the past too) didn’t participate in (important) board decisions, need to explain why they didn’t take their responsibility as a board member.

Regards,
Andreas
