[P1788] Motion to amend Motion P1788/M0001.01_StandardizedNotation needs a second
P1788 members:
Nathalie Revol, in voting "no" to Motion 1, has explicitly
given concrete changes that would cause her to vote yes.
According to 10.6 of our P&P, negative votes to the standing
document must be accompanied by actions that would cause
the person to vote "yes." Such actions would then become
a motion to amend, which would require a second.
Position papers and other such motions do not deal directly
with the standing document, and hence are not subject to such
rigorous procedures, according to our Policies and Procedures.
However, in this case, it seems appropriate to put forward
Nathalie's suggestion as a motion to amend. Nathalie has said:
"I would vote "yes" if the first three sentences
of the section "Operations and expression" are removed
(they can be re-inserted, but after discussion and a
rationale)."
To simplify this slightly, let me put this forward as
"The first three sentences of the section 'Operations and Expressions'
will be removed."
Do I have a second to this motion?
