I would be in favor of removing the notification period IF we can improve the board/membership voting tool along the lines that I requested earlier this week -- that is, making it more explicit what tasks are available to be taken by a member.<div>
<br></div><div>If we could also generate feeds from this list of polls so that members could simply subscribe to a list of tasks, I would be all in favor of the 3 day notice period (which seems necessary given our clunky way of getting votes).</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> After the Specs Council has recommended a working group proposal, we send a message to the <a href="mailto:specs@openid.net" target="_blank">specs@openid.net</a> mailing list stating that we have done so and announcing that there will be a Membership vote fifteen days in the future. I would like to see us reduce this notification period – the Membership voting period is seven days – and would recommend a three day notification period excluding weekends and holidays. This would reduce the current process from taking a maximum of 29 days to a maximum of 25 days which still seems very lengthy. I do wonder about the need of the notification period considering that the voting period is seven days and every member receives an email when the vote opens.<br>
