This charter was conditionally approved at the October board meeting with the following stipulations:

SIG CNC charter @Joseph S
Read the proposed charter here.

There are issues:

There should just be 2 co-chairs, that way there is a standardization across our SIGs. 

The process for an election for co-chairs is too cumbersome. It's fine to have elections to appoint these people, but we shouldn't be rigid about it in the charger. 

The SIG should have the power to revoke authorization. 

Board votes 5-0 to provisionally approve the charter, pending the approval of the pull request by 2 board members. 

The issues have been addressed. This charter will be eligible to be merged with a second board approval.

two small wording comments related to the cleanups in word choice around elections and number of leads, I will approve when addressed.

* Maintainers will support the Co-Leads in matters regarding the upkeep and management of machines.
* Trainers will be responsible for authorizing members to use the machines safely and providing assistance with machine usage when appropriate.
* There is not a fixed number of Maintainer and Trainer positions available; they are filled based on demonstrated skill, merit, enthusiasm, and member demand for the machines.
* When changing leadership, responsibilities should be officially transitioned to the new party on the first day of the month following an election for new leadership, or as privately discussed between the previous and incoming leadership.

please remove reference to elections - could reword as: "When changing leadership, responsibilities should be officially transitioned to the new party on the first day of the month following the change in leadership, or as privately discussed between the previous and incoming leadership."
but I think removing this line entirely would be fine too


## Organization Management

SIG decisions will officially be made by majority vote between the SIG leads who should strongly take into consideration the sentiments of any denhac member with a special interest in the CNC routers on site, while ultimately acting in the best interests of denhac as a whole. SIG leads are encouraged to make decisions using majority votes from CNC SIG members. Decisions made by the CNC SIG leads can always be overridden by the denhac board of directors.

could use rewording at "SIG decisions will officially be made by majority vote between the SIG leads" - there are 2 leads, what's a majority vote between 2 people?

suggest reword to: SIG decisions will be made by the SIG leads, who should strongly take into consideration...
