Subject: Replacing Robert's Rules


Dear List members:

I'm looking for a written document that would describe a consensus system
of decision-making.  I'm trying to replace parliamentary procedure in a
committee I'm chairing next year.  I seem to remember a document that
described the Iroquois Nation's system of governing, but I can't remember
the source information.  Any written document that would help me to build a
case for using consensus rather than majority rule in a committee would be
most appreciated.

Thanks in advance--
Kirstin
