I think we can act quickly. According to IV (c)(9) of bylaws:  Whenever EC
votes are required by the charter but inaction by other members of the EC
prevents tasks and duties required by the charter to be executed, the Chair
is empowered to act to further the interests of the constituency. In the
event of a tie vote on the EC, the Chair shall act as tiebreaker.

Now I don't know if the CROPP requests need our vote, if they don't then
you can just consult with us but make a decision yourself ( I think) and
even if it needs our vote  you can decide in case the EC (some or all)
members do not say anything. So I think just put a deadline for EC members
to respond and if they don't or some do, make a decision.

We can treat the applications as first come first evaluated. That way we
don't have to wait for applications to reach us. There is a downside to
this, obviously we might miss out on better quality proposals but still we
can make it.

I understand your concern but alittle bit of hand holding at this stage for
the community is not a bad thing, especially if they need to understand how
the program works.
