In Germany, most elected boards have a fairly differenciated approach: For different tasks, different voting systems will apply. Simple Majority, 2/3 or even 3/4 are merely examples. But they also use different voting procedures: Vote by raising hand, secret vote, written and named votes (which is the ultimate transparent if the results are shared, because it can be reproduced at any given time). I guess there is no solution that matches all situations, and it is good practice in democratic systems to make use of all options, adapted to the needs of a situation. I guess the board can set up its own rules for that, can't they?
For most things yes we can do what we want, there are some exceptions though like for example its documented that removing a board member requires 2/3 of the other board members, generally we vote kinda by hand raise (well as well as that works in a video conference call) -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
