Re: CfC: Call for consensus of proposed CG Charter

Melvin, just to be clear, when you said the following in 
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-swicg/2025Feb/0031.html :

 >Sarven, I’d appreciate if comments on this were based on direct 
participation in the meeting.

 >Regarding your comments on the Social CG meeting, where you were not 
present, these are draft minutes that haven’t been approved yet. I 
recognize that I speak quickly in meetings, so I want to clarify:

You have made two (arbitrary and unhelpful) requests that comments are 
based only on direct meeting participation and that minutes are taken 
with a grain of salt, and you yourself do not follow the behaviour you 
request. Case in point, you were not present in the 2023-10-04 Solid CG 
meeting that you were quoting without reference ( 
https://github.com/solid/specification/blob/main/meetings/2023-10-04.md#cg-chairs-election 
) and you don't have the full context of the discussion.

So you have no frame of reference here, Melvin.

The context of the discussion was that the Solid CG election process 
involves more than just the voting ( 
https://www.w3.org/community/solid/charter/#community-group-process ):

it includes participating and voting rights, nominations and verifying 
the eligibility of chair candidates, choosing chairs, and so on.

The Solid CG agreed on the charter and we abide by it:

 >If, at the end of nominations, any given seat only has a single 
candidate, that candidate immediately wins that seat. For any seats with 
multiple nominees, there will be an election for those seats.

I will not be responding to this thread and I prefer you don't contact 
me in private. Please stop misquoting me or misrepresenting my actions.

I'd be happy to provide more background (e.g., 
https://github.com/solid/process/pull/323 ) and share insights from the 
CG's experience. If anyone is interested in the Solid CG charter 
development and/or the election process, feel free to reach out in 
public to me or others who were directly involved in the development of 
these efforts.
