Notes
Introduction
The prospectus presents proposals to share common developments.
Each proposal is summarized with a statement of the purpose, the planned benefit, and the expected cost.
Sharing
The club seeks to share the costs of the proposals between those who show interest in the benefits.
You are invited to show interest in any proposals you wish to see progress. (You may also suggest new proposals.) The club hosts will then attempt to share equally the cost of each proposal between those showing interest.
If equal shares aren't possible, the hosts will try to achieve a consensus between contributors for an adjustment to the proposal, or for an unequal sharing of its cost. If the cost is not reachable, the proposal will be recycled for further comments.
Reporting
Contributors to proposals will receive regular reports on the progress of the proposals. The status of each running proposal will also be published on the service desk, and updated as contributions are agreed and as work proceeds.
Show Interest
Show interest by completing this form. Select proposals that benefit you, add your email address, and press Submit.
