A board votes on motions that change its roster, and later rescinds one ​

Story ​

At the September meeting the secretary drafts a motion to appoint a new treasurer from 1 January. When it is moved she opens it; it becomes decision 2026-01 and the nine voting directors are fixed as its voters. She records the roll call, closes the motion and it carries six to one, with the arithmetic written out. The new treasurer’s appointment appears on the roster, naming the decision, and the register shows the meeting’s carried decisions. In the spring the board reverses itself: a rescission is drafted, carried, and the treasurer’s appointment ends as rescinded while the original decision stays on record, marked superseded.

The Formal Contract

The narrative above explains; the sections below are authoritative — the rules, scenarios and tests this document binds.

Goal
Record the board’s roll call to appoint a treasurer, let the result take effect, and undo it later by a rescission.

End-to-end policy: required: A carried decision changes another module’s roster in the same step, so the path must be proved end to end; the decisions suites and acceptance journeys already do so against the API.
