The StaticContract is the only part of ConsensusPolling that does not change while a decision-making process is underway. This does not mean that participants cannot still have their concerns met with regards to GoThresholds or DoneTimer. Here's how:
What do I do if I am not happy with the GoThresholds?
| Reason
|
Solution
|
| One or more GoThresholds is too high, and we will never be done because there isn't enough interest in this topic.
|
A new ConsensusPoll is started with the lower GoThreshold(s).
|
| One or more GoThresholds is too low. With low thresholds, participants may decide not to do outreach, thus missing important voices that need to be included in the process.
|
Whoever realizes this problem sets her status to NotYet , with a comment about participation. For every person that does this, 9 more participants would need to be recruited to get the whole process to 90%.
|
What do I do if I am not happy with the DoneTimer?
| Reason
|
Solution
|
| The process feels like it's taking too long, and the document keeps getting better.
|
Patience
|
| The process is being purposefully delayed without the document improving.
|
ClotureThreshold
|
| People at status YES have not had time to review recent changes to the document.
|
Someone edits the document to reset the timer, as many times as necessary, while people are being contacted to re-check the document and their status.
