[Sca-cooks] OT- Input request from SCA BoD/politics

[Mike Newton]

I am suggesting that Each Kingdom propose a number of candidates from its
kingdom in the Kingdom newsletter and has each of the members at its shire
or Baronial meeting cast ballots on who should represent the Kingdom in the
BoD.
The Proposal of the Nine Kings (Name of it at www.sca.org) may also be the
Pennsic Accords. That method of having the Kings appoint BoD members smells
of Favoritism, and possible opponent "exile" as the person in question must
stay on the BoD for the whole term.
