Here is the link to the Robert's Rules:

I know it is too long. So I am open to suggestions. We do have to start
someplace.

Feel free to submit your own version....:)

Since the GA does not have procedures on what a motion is, how it needs to
be proposed, whether it needs to be seconded and so on, I think this is
quite hard to answer.

At the moment, there are 27 messages in my personal GA archive containing
the word "seconded".

I think we do need to set up that procedures subgroup; I have heard no
response to my comments on the proposed Roberts' modifications from a while
ago; I guess it was lost in the noise.
