In the very looong discussion re actions made by the Board, I want to high-light two comments been made.I see them as good summaries and hope they can be seen as conclusions and base to look into possible improvement in processes

On James removal
2016-01-10 kl. 09:04, by  MZMcBride:

* evaluate whether the Wikimedia Foundation bylaws should be changed to
make it more difficult (or easier) to remove a Board of Trustees member;

* strongly urge the Board of Trustees to be more transparent and
communicative, embracing the values that keep our projects running; and

* evaluate the process for filling community-selected Board of Trustees
seats, perhaps changing the seats to be community-elected.

On appointment of Arnnon Geshuri
2016-01-09 kl. 22:21, by Pete Forsyth:

(1) The Board did not apparently do basic due diligence in looking into his
background
(2) Mr. Geshuri himself did not highlight the Google firing issue to the
board prior to his appointment.
