Trustee Website Guidelines as of Boston '06
A. - The site will be functional year round.
- Agenda items will be accepted for submission to the Trustees website no later than 30
days after the minutes from the previous meeting are made available from I.S.O. and posted to
the Trustee website for reference.
- Any printed material that will be passed out at the Trustee meeting will be posted on
the Trustee website for prior downloading if the committee chairs and other designated
individuals are able to supply such reports. In the event material pertaining to G.A. literature is
part of the handouts, it will be noted as non-G.A. approved literature. Submission of any
handouts for the Trustees consideration will be at the option of the author(s).
- All flyers and reports that are posted to the Trustee website will be reviewed and
modified, if necessary, to remain compliant with issue pertaining to member anonymity. This
includes items covering:
- Member's full names
- Member's addresses
- Member's phone numbers
- Member's email addresses
- Display of new literature prior to the initial submission to the B.O.T. for
consideration and also after the 1st vote has been approved showing with watermarks or
adequate notification designating the items as non-G.A. approved material and thereby not for
distribution to meetings and the members from any area.
- Any and all G.A. material that would be considered reference material will be
posted and available for 'Keyword Searching', as determined by the Trustee website committee,
including items from the B.O.R. and its meetings.
- The Trustee website will be co-hosted on a server by a company that will provide
efficient and secure service at the lowest possible cost, as determined by the committee.
Funding for this, if any is required, will be from the B.O.T. Chair's annual discretionary fund.
- The Trustee website committee members will be the only ones to have access to the
Trustee website. Any new committee members will be fully indoctrinated with the procedures
and programming protocols for the Trustee website.
- I.S.O. will remain as the owner and administrative contact of the TrusteeWebsite.com
domain name.
B. The Trustee Website will be under the control of a standing Trustee
Website committee made up of either current or past Trustees, 2 of which must have website
programming experience. The committee will maintain the content and administrate the Trustee
website. It will also give reports at each Trustee meeting of new additions and modifications that
the committee would like to have approved for deployment on the Trustee website. Any such
changes may be showcased between Trustee meetings for the members to use in order to help
render a more informed decision by the B.O.T. at the next physical meeting, regarding an
approval or denial of the new changes. During that period, the committee will be under the
guidance of the Chair of the B.O.T. as to appropriateness of the new features that are pending
B.O.T decisions.
C. The Trustee Line will be published on the Trustee website and will be
under the supervision of the Trustee website committee that will also decide content
appropriateness (Inappropriateness will include profanity, derogatory statements about another
member or person, derogatory statements about another room and matters unrelated to
Gamblers Anonymous). Disputes over the opinions of the committee and members who
challenge the committee's decision will be decided by the 3 Chairs of the B.O.T.
