There are some hints in the Minutes, as to where the differences originally stem from (I am happy to look them up for anyone interested). But I believe that this is not of primary relevance in the current situation. > I encourage you to continue to discuss your concerns with the board > privately.

And even if I may not have fully considered these aspects, I still do not see another option for me. Please note that the aim of the mail is to ask the Board to adopt my proposal for a referendum on their own accord. Including my motivations and CC'ing foundation-list was unfortunately a requirement considering the difficulty of the situation at this point. I do hope that community members will form their own opinion on whether a Referendum is a good solution rather than deciding solely based on whether they think my motivations have merits.
