Most comments here indicate people are in favor of Council being disbanded. This would mean shifting their tasks and responsibilities to another group within MC eV. Naturally, this would fall into the hands of the General Meeting respectively active members. Alternatively, a working group could be established, by election or simply by volunteering. Board doesn't really come into consideration here, does it?

I'm not very nostalgic, but I like good tradition.
My advise would be to keep Council, make good use of it and to not strain board resilience.
I'm staying out of either body in order to convey and to make sure we will have the broadest consensus possible.
Unfortunately, we can't please everybody, but if concerns arise, they should of course be considered.
MC eV regulations unlikely are perfect and this is our opportunity to improve them. Critics are welcome.

Please also note my and Woodys' posts above.
Let's make this referendum a strong plebiscite.
Peace
Ok... I dislike commenting on highly polarised, politicised topics, but my opinion is: keep the Council. I don't see a meaningful difference between Council and "a working group ... established, by election or simply by volunteering".

Besides, I am not sure how to contact Hildon Board aka e.V., and in which cases it should be contacted, if any. At the same time, I can find Council members at IRC, meeting regularly.

And, doesn't the Council organise Coding Competitions, from time to time?

Best wishes.
