I would not like to add examples because they are would probably be too vague and at the same time might seem too inclusive. Feel free to suggest another wording though. > ii) What's the policy on changing the policy? :) > Should the need arise after the initial discussion to tighten or loosen the > rules of conduct or privacy, will the account holders be informed, is there > any objection period planned, etc. Change of policy... I guess that would be the 'normal' stuff around here. Proposals on this list and then either a change based on consensus (like the current policy) or a change based on a vote. I don't think we should build in a self-referential clause in it to provide email addresses on policy changes. I think the consensus/vote approach will provide enough buffers against too radical changes. N>
