Was lead to this by thinking about the current Enspiral conversation. I was envisioning a link 'Groups decision policy' under the key on the decision panel. When the user clicks this the policy is displayed in a modal. This would include what each position meant, how much is needed for the decision to pass etc...

This info could be set up from the admins group settings page.

How about adding this to a consolidated "Demo Page" which is a one-stop user guide for everything that a user needs to know to operate in Loomio land. GingerHQ and Discuss2Decide has quick tours/ demos - https://www.discuss2decide.com/quick_tour#

Yes I love this idea, I think it is one of the features that leads us into the consultation space. For example in the setup phase you can do this yourself or we can facilitate it for you so you finish up with a decision protocol document. It makes it real to people how fundamental the change is inviting everyone into a decision. I also think the demo page, and quick tour is something we need to do before the big reveal!

I really like the idea. Just a matter of figuring out how to add features like this without making it daunting to set up a new group because of the amount of info required.

@ben - provide a default policy that is editable

Benjamin Knight

Really like that idea Joshua! Would be a nice gentle way of encouraging the culture of organic inclusive decision-making without imposing rules on anyone

Anyone who wants to mock this up and post it in here is welcome.

Ben if you can think about the defaults, I'll mock up the functionality.
