For example, it would have been beneficial if Dodger had shared the memo with us beforehand or engaged in a discussion about the implications of Beth’s withdrawal on the election process.

@decentralistdan

Prior to start of the current ZCG election, @Beth applied for the Outreach Coordinator position, & ZCG has voted to formally accept her proposal. She will be starting in this new position on July 1st on a 3 month trial period with the option to extend.

Continuing the discussion from Beth for ZCG (June 2023) [Withdrawn]:

@Beth

I will check it out and see if I can get more information from the team!

It does appear that Beth applied for the RFP - ZCG Outreach Coordinator position after declaring her candidacy, and the ZCG committee accepted her role, fully aware that this decision would render her ineligible to stand for the election. Shouldn’t this be considered a factor in evaluating whether the ZCG is potentially interfering in the elections?

It is disheartening to see that our community elected a committee that struggles to collaborate with a small, mission-dedicated team at ZF. In the grander scheme of things, there are more significant challenges that require attention, yet it appears that power dynamics and games are taking precedence over finding solutions.
