=Proposed Rule=

"To put a votable point on the agenda for an ALV, the point needs to be signed
by at least 10% of the members with voting rights. In addition the board can
independently put votable points on the agenda"

=Rationale=

At the January 2014 ALV we went through a large number of votable points that were
poorly thought out, badly worded or both.
For those items, the process seemed have been, put it on the wiki (or not even
that), move it to the agenda even if nobody commented and expect the item to
fixed there. And then we are stuck with it in the ALV.

In my opinion, people who propose an item have to do the legwork to get it
into shape. If nobody cares, then maybe an item just doesn't belong as a
votable point on an ALV.
So I propose is to have a minimum number of members who have
to counter sign a votable point on the agenda of an ALV.

The current statutes require 10% of the members with voting rights to allow
members to force to board to organize an ALV. So I will use that as a starting
point.
Finally, the last part of the text is there to make sure that the board doesn't have to jump through
hoops. It also allows issues that come up just before the agenda is finalized
to be added by the board.
