So, I am taking away that the overall point of the post is that a formal global EA group should be created, and it should (and can) follow democractic standards, as has been proven in some national groups. Is that right?
Is there an official EA Global group currently? to me it seems that in essence that is what CEA stands for. And as it is a stand alone organization, would the idea be to
1. change CEA governance, so that it falls under the EA Global group, or for CEA to be democratically structured directly or
2. to create a partner EA Global group that works in partnership with CEA, where the former is governed by its members?
I like the thoughts provoked by this post, and I can’t find much to disagree on, but it feels like it gets into governance details of follow on steps, and we’re still on step 1: a higher level discussion about how/where/if/why an EA Global group should exist. (Note though that I’m not directly involved in meta/community building EA, so it may be background others are aware of but I do not have)
