Ernesto and all, 

GO::DH membership is defined by subscription to this email list. All members of the list have access to the email addresses of all who have subscribed. You can access it by visiting the following site and logging in: http://listserv.uleth.ca/mailman/listinfo/globaloutlookdh-l

During our last election, we had 545 subscribers, but 25 of those email bounced. It's entirely possible there are individual subscribers who may be subscribed under more than one emails. 

Though this information is incomplete, I hope it is of some use.

Hi all, 

Is it possible to know the membership of this list, or if privacy/consent is an issue at least some anonymised data, re: number of subscribed members, and/or proportion of members who do not currently serve in ADHO/ACH/EDAH/GO::DH committees/boards?

Thanks!

Dear Alex,

As an executive member, I say yes to this.

Sincerely,

Thank you, Barbara. I wish nothing more than that. 

In the spirit of democracy, I ask all current executive members to say they agree for this vote to take place on the membership. A simple majority is all we need. We do not need for the vote to take place in secret—nothing on the bylaws about that. The bylaws, on the other hand do encourage important issues to be polled by members: 

"Individual members in good standing have the right to vote in GO::DH elections and such issues as the Executive shall decide to poll the membership on."

Just say aye if you agree.

If the executive approves the passing of the poll, we will stick to our schedule, and vote on December 15. This gives us time to deliberate and secure a proper referendum, with an electoral officer assuring the standards of the proceedings.

Dear Alex,

Thank you for putting my name forward. Of course, as always, I am willing to work with Dan and others in making this case. However, I would like to be assured that that the decision will not be only in the hands of the executive, but the whole of the GO::DH membership. After all, this is precisely what you have been proposing, right?

Best,

BB

Thank you all, 

Real quick, so I don't interrupt your conversation too much. Dan, would you be amenable to making your argument into a Google Doc? Perhaps Glen and Barbara would like to add. Just so that we can keep organized.

That's all, 
Please continue. This will be enormously helpful for the executive committee when it comes time to make a decision. As always feel free to write in the language you are comfortable in. We will figure it out.

Hello all,

It seems a large part of this discussion is not about ADHO, but rather about if we think our goals are best accomplished in an organizational structure. In some ways putting GO::DH into a large organization like ADHO is a poor fit. GO::DH started as a very grass roots organization that resisted hierarchies, committees, officers, etc. and rather used social media and loose collaborations to create some sort of a movement or to create small projects. To me we are much more like a social movement, a political movement, than we are a typical academic organization. I think we are at a moment where we need to figure out if such a beginning should be contained within an organization for positive benefits, reject such organizational structures as antithetical to our goals or to come up with some sort of a hybrid model. Thinking about the issue as less about ADHO and more in this structural way has helped me to consider what might be at stake and where we might go.

Best,

Amy

Ernesto,

I know I'm not Alex but the list belongs to the members, so I would argue that the conversation should happen however the members will it.

Thank you for this,  Alex. 

We should have a collective deadline of December 1 for deliberations. In that time, we encourage general and executive members to debate on the list what you would like to see GO::DH become. All of your discussion, comments, will be taken into consideration as the executive votes on a final decision by December 15.

Should we have that conversation on this thread (i.e. in reply to your message as I am doing now) or would you prefer to have a different thread or even different threads?

Thank you!

Ernesto

Dear all,

As promised, here is the document with the argument for why we should leave ADHO. The first round was written by Dr. Roopika Risam and me, but those in support can add their own rationales and arguments, or comment on ours. Instructions are in the Google Doc.

A second argument will be prepared by those who support the idea of becoming a Constituent Organization of ADHO. I think Dan O'Donnell (Canada), Barbara Bordalejo (Argentina) and Glen Worthey (USA) have signaled they would be interested in drafting such a document. Hopefully sooner, rather than later, so we can proceed with deliberations.

After the second argument is made, a third argument is possible if enough members feel there should be a middle path, or a "third way."

We should have a collective deadline of December 1 for deliberations. In that time, we encourage general and executive members to debate on the list what you would like to see GO::DH become. All of your discussion, comments, will be taken into consideration as the executive votes on a final decision by December 15.

We will announce the results of the process before the year ends, and hopefully move forward with renewed energy into the next stage of GO::DH. Next year, I will pass on the baton to a new chair who will carry out our collective will, but will help in the transition, whatever that is, as long as I'm chair.

All best,
Alex.
