Me too. For the 2 years I sat on the board, I think having fewer people would definitely have been a good thing. I can't count the number of times we've all more or less agreed, but no one was willing to step in and take responsibility for seeing it through. Reducing the numbers will ultimately help that I believe. I guess it all hinges on whether you think the board should be a fast or slow moving entity. I personally think that 7 is more than enough, if you have a good mixture of people representing the project, eager to be there, sensible enough and willing to execute rather than continually holding back.
