The EC discussed the ongoing work on the IAOA "Joining" webpage. It is urgent
to finish as soon as possible but the changes that are being implemented
require several changes. (010)
The list for reduced membership rates has been further revised, finalized and
adopted by the EC. (011)
The President reported on the Ontology Summit 2011 co-organized by the IAOA.
General Co-chairs of the meeting will be Steve Ray and Nicola Guarino. (012)
The EC has spent most of the meeting in discussing the proposed draft of the
IAOA Bylaws.
The following structure of the Bylaws has been agreed upon (changes are
possible depending on how the discussion of each section proceed):
ARTICLE I. MEMBERSHIP
ARTICLE II. MEETING OF MEMBERS
ARTICLE III. EXECUTIVE COUNCIL
ARTICLE IV. MEETINGS OF THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL
ARTICLE V. OFFICERS
ARTICLE VI. ADVISORY BOARD
ARTICLE VII. ELECTION OF COUNCILORS AND OFFICERS
ARTICLE VIII. COMMITTEES
ARTICLE IX. SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS AND REGIONAL CHAPTERS
ARTICLE X. CONTRACTS, CHECKS, DEPOSITS, AND FUNDS
ARTICLE XI. MISCELLANEOUS
ARTICLE XII. PARLIAMENTARY AUTHORITY
ARTICLE XIII. INDEMNIFICATION OF COUNCILORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND OTHER
AGENTS
ARTICLE XIV. AMENDMENTS TO THESE BYLAWS (013)
Content to add:
Events and Programs (in Bylaws),
Intellectual Properties Rights principle (in Statute). (014)
The EC has fixed a new meeting devoted to the discussion of the Bylaws. A
series of meetings will be needed to cover the whole document.
The EC agreed also on the need to rationalize the content now in the IAOA
Statute and the content proposed in the Bylaws. Ideally, the Statute will
collect the principles of the association and the Bylaws the procedures. This
means that at the time of the adoption of the Bylaws, the IAOA Assembly will be
asked to vote on the changed version of the Statute as well. (015)
(End of Report) (016)
