I would suggest a nominations committee be formed to suggest people to the board (people not on the committee could send suggestions to the committee). The committee would gather some names, work out who would be useful, find out if they were interested and then the board would pretty much just rubber stamp it. I would suggest a committee of 4 people, with a mixture of board and non-board people. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
