Looking in the process docs, I was unable to find specific wording on our requirement that votes be explicit in the agenda for online meetings. The "In-person meeting consensus" section of consensus.md has the following paragraph: > For in-person meetings, champions are expected to list points for which they will seek consensus in the meeting agenda, and new consensus points can be added in-person as the discussion proceeds. I propose that we add language to the "Online consensus" section disallowing consensus votes that were not on the agenda 24 hours before the meeting (our current practice) and I further propose that we make an exception for general interest votes on pre-proposals. The goal of this exception is to eliminate artificial process delays for moving proposals to phase 1, given that the technical bar for that move is so low.

Looking in the process docs, I was unable to find specific wording on
our requirement that votes be explicit in the agenda for online
meetings.
The "In-person meeting consensus" section of consensus.md has the
following paragraph:
I propose that we add language to the "Online consensus" section
disallowing consensus votes that were not on the agenda 24 hours
before the meeting (our current practice) and I further propose that
we make an exception for general interest votes on pre-proposals. The
goal of this exception is to eliminate artificial process delays for
moving proposals to phase 1, given that the technical bar for that
move is so low.
If we reach consensus on this change here, I will add an agenda item to
vote on this change at a CG meeting.
