'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish the standards to be applied to the certification of lineages.'''
Note please a distinction here between "approving" and "certifying" a lineage. The former means our confidence is sufficient in the lineage as a whole to admit someone to membership in a subgroup[[Sub-Group]]. The latter means the Society places our reputation behind each item (excepting those after 1940 for which documentation is not offered).
'''Proposal: The Society should publish in a suitable form those lineages that have been approved or certified. Such to redact most data more recent than the latest release of US Census data (presently 1940).'''
==[[Descents from Antiquity]]==
This a project to propose and prove or disprove descents from antiquity. This will involve publishing proposed lineages as a tool to generate discussion and consensus. A final report on each link will be published in The [[Augustan Omnibus]].
'''Proposal: The Society should more clearly specify and publish the purpose and scope of the [[Descents from Antiquity ]] project.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should more clearly identify the individual lines that it attempts to prove or disprove with the [[Descents from Antiquity ]] project.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should produce reports on each of the lines studied by the [[Descents from Antiquity]] project on a regular basis until each is proven or disproven, with the final reports on each published in the [[Augustan Omnibus]].'''
==[[Family of Augustans]]==
The objective of this project is to computerize lineages of Augustans whose genealogies are stored at headquarters [[Headquarters]] or have appeared in various Society publications with the intent to demonstrate our interrelatedness, and to identify common ancestors, both for the sake of fraternity and to assist one another with genealogical research.
'''Proposal: The Society should document and publish the process by which the [[Family of Augustans ]] project is to be pursued.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should place the combined lineages included in the [[Family of Augustans]] project online for use by members and possibly others. This should take the form of a useful web site, not just a collection of GED files.'''
==Library Support==
The Department, either through the main Committee, a sub-committee, or a designated officer, will advise the [[Library|Library Department ]] in matters of accession, classification, and deaccession of materials on this subject.
==Article Solicitation==
The Department, either through the main Committee, a sub-committee, or a designated officer, will solicit articles on this subject for the [[Augustan Omnibus]], in cooperation with the [[Omnibus Editor]].
