The constitution looks gnerally fine to me, although some of the rules
regarding
committee members seem a bit over the top to me (paragraph 4.5 should
perhaps be reviewed):
Section 4.5:
...The quorum for the Committee Elections shall be ten members, or 15% of
the group's membership...
Personally I don't think things need be that complicated.
And the first sentence of 4.6 reads like double Dutch:
"The Committee shall be appointed by way of a non-stochastic Single
Transferable Vote election."
I think 4.6 should be entirely replaced by "The Committee shall be appointed
by election, open to all members, and votes shall be returned to the
Committee-appointed Electoral Officer via email." The voting will still be
the same of course, only that is easier to read.
