Validation rules

Cross-field rules beyond what JSON Schema expresses. Documented in the draft; not yet enforced by tooling.

  • endDate must be on or after startDate.
  • A council should have at most one active president at any time.

Open questions for legal and industry review

  • Officer roles come from the Standard Bylaws; corporations can amend them. Consider allowing custom roles.
