Motion to accept the Fan Art and Fan Fiction agreement, as provided to the Board of Directors by the Legal and Licensing Committee

Discussion arose regarding other members of TRMN that are Honorverse authors, and if any of them would have access. This may come up during further discussions with David Weber and BuNine.

====Motion: Adoption of the "Better Place to Be a Fan" Decision Test====

BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Directors adopts this Test for evaluating major decisions, and directs its use by the Board and by all constituent committees, Bureaus, Branches/Fleets, Chapters, and boards of TRMN when considering major policy, structural, or programmatic decisions;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that proposals clearly serving this standard should be prioritized, and those that do not should be weighed more skeptically;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this motion takes effect immediately upon adoption.

Motion to approve the above decision test for all future actions was made by Geoff Strayer, and seconded by Zach McCauley
Discussion was had regarding “what is a major decision”. Consensus came to be that anything larger than affecting one chapter would be considered a “major decision”.
The focus is that we need to make things move in a positive direction by providing more interaction with members and the membership.

===Public Action on the Special Meeting Action Items may be taken.===
Motion: The Board acknowledges that all parties involved in the current Mantipedia wiki dispute have acted out of a desire to improve TRMN and better serve its members. Such efforts, however, must be coordinated through established organizational channels. Accordingly, the Board affirms that organization-wide wiki content shall be maintained through the official TRMN wiki under BuComm. Tenth Fleet may maintain a fleet-specific wiki, provided organization-wide content is referenced by hyperlink to the official TRMN wiki rather than separately maintained or duplicated. The Board further encourages the parties involved to work cooperatively toward reconciliation and future collaboration, with the Executive Vice President serving as mediator as necessary.

Please Note:
A ‘special meeting’ may only address those items on the agenda and for which the meeting was called.
Pursuant to the ByLaws, the President invited the Chief Legal Officer to participate in this meeting.
