Re: Giving the ME rights to the CZ blog - http://forum.citizendium.org/index...
In my role as tech staff member, I have registered Daniel Mietchen (the current ME) and given him Editor rights on the CZ blog. This allows him to post to the blog without moderator intervention and to edit posts made by others.

The motion passes. I have placed the motion on the MC passed motions wiki page. I will also compose an email message to Daniel informing him of the EC and MC decisions. I will copy all MC and EC members on that email.

Quote from: Dan Nessett on January 21, 2012, 09:09:07 PM This has been discussed several times already. That discussion also proposed that use of the blog should be controlled by both the MC and EC. So, if the EC decides to grant su...

Quote from: Peter Jackson on January 12, 2012, 12:19:06 PM If you're going to avoid casting votes, that raises the real possibility that the EC might be unable to resolve some disputes. In that case, it seems to me that the intentio...
