Aligning of MCC and HFC:

Dear community.

Firstly we would like to thank all the people who voted in the recent
elections.
Your say matters and it's important that you "the community" have your say on
who will represent us.
As I am sure you know by now the objective of the recent Referendum was to
align HFC and MCC together, hence forming a Council with similar rules
including a few tweaks to adjust to new practicalities; instead of being a
Nokia conduit.

This will allow the two bodies to be aligned for the current and any future
term. Hildon Foundation will therefore be left with one Council and a Board of
Directors. In future this shall result in a single election performed for the
unified council.

For the above to happen it is required that the elections for HFC and MCC
members are to be the same.
This unfortunately didn't happen and we are currently left with one different
member in each body, out of the five.

The members of the Councils to be aligned are:-

Maemo Community Council
Rüdiger Schiller / chemist
Joerg Reisenweber / joerg_rw
Christian Ratzenhofer / merlin1991
Michael Demetriou / qwazix
Aakash Sadh / thedead1440

Hildon Foundation Council
Rüdiger Schiller / chemist
Joerg Reisenweber / joerg_rw
Christian Ratzenhofer / merlin1991
Michael Demetriou / qwazix
Paul Healy / sixwheeledbeast

We feel three bodies will cause great confusion to the community and will be
counter-productive.

Therefore to solve matters, sixwheeledbeast and thedead1440 stepped down with
immediate effect from HFC and MCC respectively. While they step down to allow
the alignment of the two Councils into one singular body, the current Council
for its term must listen to the opinions the aforementioned two may have on
any topics before council reaching a consensus.

Hence the aligned Hildon Foundation Council members now are:

Rüdiger Schiller / chemist
Joerg Reisenweber / joerg_rw
Christian Ratzenhofer / merlin1991
Michael Demetriou / qwazix

We believe the above is an important step for moving the Community forward
with a unified Council in the post-Nokia era.

So:
MCC hereby declares the bodies of HFC and MCC to be one single body in
perpetuity. Further, MCC agrees to align all future changes to be in line
with HFC's procedures of change so that the Bylaws are adhered to.
and:
HFC hereby declares the bodies of HFC and MCC to be one single body in
perpetuity. Further, HFC accepts as it's own all existing rules, electorate
processes and generals of MCC, including future changes, as it's own.

Regards
Maemo Community Council & Hildon Foundation Council coalition.
From now on Unified Council.
