That's an interesting point. By my reckoning, that would mean that this
years board would consist of[1]:
Owen Taylor
Luis Villa
Jody Goldberg
Daniel Veillard
Tim Ney
Murray Cumming
Christian Schaller
instead of:
Owen Taylor
Luis Villa
Jody Goldberg
Daniel Veillard
Jonathan Blandford
Federico Mena-Quintero
Tim Ney
Miguel de Icaza
Murray Cumming
Christian Schaller
David Neary
Meaning we'd have the same board, but without Jonathan, Federico,
Miguel and Dave.
Would that make for a more effective board?
Cheers,
Mark.
[1] - Yes, its not entirely accurate. Some people on the hypothetical
board-of-seven may not have run for election at all if the board size
was smaller.
