  1. Discussion topic – Sharing strawpoll responses
    • If requested, a strawpoller can get a detailed list of responses to a question
    • List contains attendee name + vote
    • Motivation is to allow strawpoller to follow up with the responders based on their vote
    • Comments:
      • One individual said against ruling from previous chair
      • Share results with everyone not just the person running the poll
    • Stephen: Everyone should see the results
    • Stephen: Strawpoll is being used like a motion
    • Marc: Second Stephen – we have a means of making a decision (a motion)
    • Marc: OK with sharing results
    • Marc: Leave it up to the chair to set the agenda using info from the strawpolls and other information. Prioritize the motions with lots of support.
    • Mike: OM – strawpoll is non-binding. Group needs education on this.
    • Mike: Good to schedule motions; people are prepared.
    • Mike: REVme strawpolls: sometime we recorded individual votes and sometimes not.
    • Alfred: No restrictions on running motions; anyone can bring one and it will be added to the agenda.
    • Alfred: Experimented with releasing results to everyone but there were privacy concerns.
    • Alfred: In f2f, you can see how someone is voting. Looking for similar info from electronic tools.
    • Joseph: Rely on Robert’s rules. Distinct rules on how motions and strawpolls are used.
    • Joseph: Now we are debating strawpolls. Must stop this. Debate motions but not strawpolls.
    • Laurent: Does not look like there is much objection to sharing strawpoll results.
    • Laurent: There is no requirement that you shall not run a motion unless it passes strawpoll.
    •  

 

  1. Round table and AOB
    • Alfred: people having issues with Slido. Can we use tools other that Slido?
    • Jon: Operation should be the same across the WG. (opposed to using other tools)
    • Jon: Identify the issues with Webex and Slido and fix them.
