I agree that's the more important question. Regarding the founder seat, I do think it would be good governance to eventually find a way to solve the problem it solves (preserving long term institutional memory & wisdom on the Board) in a manner that generalizes beyond Jimmy's involvement. Not only because Jimmy won't be around forever, but also to draw from a more diverse set of voices. That could be done through non-voting observers (for which there is precedent), advisors, the council, or some other mechanism.
