Grex Coop13 Item 77: Member Initiative: Do Nothing For Four Weeks.
Entered by cmcgee on Sat Jan 10 03:01:42 UTC 2004:

Member Initiative:  Do Nothing For Four Weeks.

I'm serious.  I'm afraid that the whiplash being created by being forced to
chose between the two previous items is making Grex into an emotionally
driven, lines-in-the-sand, frenzy.  I'm proposing a cooling-off period in
which we make no decisions, and stop the running of all time-based governance
processes.  

I'm not sure how to suspend the rules, but that IS what I'm proposing.
Let's all take a deep breath, and not be driven into even more unfortunate
reactive decisions.  We stand to lose a lot more by whipping back and
forth and making decisions based on some feeling of
end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it urgency.  Grex will not go away if we pause
for a bit.  As an organizational development consultant I am seeing
serious signs of self-destruction here.
