''The rationale is presented [[Annual_General_Meetings/2020/Suggested_resolutions#Vote_3:_Work_on_membership_prerequisites|here]].''
 
''The [[Membership_Working_Group|Membership Working Group]] (MWG) does not have the humanpower to complete the work in time for the [[Annual_General_Meetings|Annual General Meeting]] (AGM) in December, so some board members havehad offered to help. During the [[Board/Minutes/2021-10-15#Membership_prerequisites|October board chat]] it was decided that there is not enough time for the board to propose a resolution for the [[Annual_General_Meetings/2021|Annual General Meeting in December]]. One of the suggestions was for the (new) board ''(formed after 11 December)'' to propose changes to the membership prerequisites, to be voted by the OSMF members on a General Meeting, which will take place within the next 6 months.''
