happy to see that we agree to this. This was actually about board members paying membership fees to others as "private individuals", not about them drinking a beer in the pub or driving to SOTM. > Furthermore, *even if they were* obligated to act in the best > interests of the board in everything they do, that *still* would not > imply that they aren't allowed to sponsor the membership applications > of selected individuals, i.e. give them money with which to apply for > membership. I think this really depends on the case. If a board member paid as a private individual membership fees for lots people, and those people voted then in his sense in OSMF votings this would clearly be a breach (at least of good faith). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
