Re: A GS democracy?
Moreover, I think no matter what day it is and what happens, you will always have users who are willing to moderate.
What you should be discussing (not in public :D) is who will manage the website? The server? The updates? The upgrades? The bug fixes? The money / finance, hosting? Software renewals? Who will bring the website up when it goes down?
Gupshup should be seeking those invdividuals and not moderators... moderators will come and go and picking them is not that of a big deal.
I think that is what I am asking..but ahow we will and should select who is making the engine run. I know financial is the biggest problem, but lets say that is resolved then what. but I am thinking all inclusive..maybe te answer is that the mechanism is to make sure that the behind teh scenes team , thats where the baton is passed and appointment or volunteer directors to then manage day to day running
This may be overthinking it but i dunno maybe really set up as a co-op entity or as a mutual company or something or a corp...with revenue strems and charter, etc and then no matter who runs it, they ahve to abide by it..etc..
not quite sure yet..
