A Proposal to Clarify Grex's Stance on Deleting Items
| 
Feb 8 23:23 UTC 2004 |
From all the discussion to date, I think we're approaching a consensus that
items should be removed from conferences only in very obvious circumstances,
such as those involving illegal behaviour. I'd like to see that consensus
consolidated and clarified. Therefore, I am making yet another proposal
on the subject.
I am looking for a single vote, yes or no, that will settle the question
until someone brings it up again.
Resolved: An item's author, the person who entered the
item in a conference, shall have the authority
to remove that item from the original conference
and any conferences to which it has been linked.
If the software installed on grex does not give
the author sufficient capability, the author may
seek assistance from staff and fairwitnesses.
If the above resolution fails, the following paragraph will be adopted
as a member resolution:
An item's author may remove an item at any time before a
response has been made to it. After a response has been
made, an item may be removed only if it poses a clear and
present danger to the system or it clearly abets criminal
activity. Examples of the former include a very large item
that fills all available disk space, an item that is posted
more than once or in several conferences at once and items
that contain terminal escape sequences. Examples of the
latter include items that contain social security numbers
or credit card numbers.

I would prefer one vote, yes to adopt the first paragraph and no to adopt
the second. However, I am open to presenting each paragraph as a separate
proposal, if we cannot settle on acceptable working of each paragraph.
