| 46 | | Most decisions are made by individuals working together on specific projects for Tachanka in the manner that is most appropriate for the situation. Those decisions that affect the collective as a whole may be made by using the following process: |
| 47 | | |
| 48 | | 1. All proposals should be made to the tachanka-collective mailing list ''and'' posted as a [https://aerosan.tachanka.org/newticket ticket] on the wiki. The email subject should begin with the word "proposal" followed by a numeric identifier corresponding to the ticket number, and nothing else. The proposing member may withdraw the proposal at any time during the decision-making period. |
| 49 | | 2. Our goal is to make decisions by consensus; we will do this by this process. |
| 50 | | * The proposal is passed if it is approved by 1/3 (rounding up) of collective members; and, |
| 51 | | * There are no negative votes. |
| 52 | | 3. We have a time limit of two weeks for proposals, after this point the proposal is dropped if there not enough positive votes. |
| 53 | | 4. The decision-making time is automatically increased on the request of any member, if they give a reason for the extension and a specific date for the new deadline. |
| 54 | | 5. Only member groups who are active at the time that a proposal is made can support or block that proposal. |
| 55 | | 6. Proposals that have been accepted are posted onto the wiki with a brief summary of discussions, and numbers of abstentions and supporters. This is the responsibility of the original proposer. |
