Evaluate Decisions From Opening Snapshots

Context

Voting can span roster or bylaw changes. A stable snapshot lets members understand the basis actually used for their motion.

Decision

Opening captures the effective rules or implemented defaults, threshold, seats, dated voters and meeting attendance, and deterministic evaluation uses those saved facts to explain the result.

Alternatives Considered

Read the current rules and roster again when closing. An intervening change would alter voter eligibility or the required support during the vote.

Keep only the final outcome. Members could not check the arithmetic or governing basis.

Consequences

Later roster or rule edits do not replace the opening snapshot used for evaluation. An empty rule document currently invokes defaults, a behavior Product has not confirmed.
