Bernhard, Good points, i'll correct the draft accordingly as the text has contradictions. Comments shall be made on the steering discuss list.

Do you mean this "steering" discuss list? Or the general disc...@documentfoundation list? Sorry if I chose the wrong one... There are just two short comments I want to post: 1st: *Number of ESC members* In "Governance" ( http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/CommunityBylaws#Governance) it reads: "Engineering Steering Committee : ... It is composed of 5 members. " Two headings below ( http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/CommunityBylaws#Engineering_Steering_Committee) it reads: "The Engineering Steering Committee (ESC) is made of developers who are coopted (i.e, there's no need for election and there can be as many members of the ESC as needed). " So what is the number of ESC members? "5" or "as many as needed"? 2nd: *Financial board* The bylaws refer to a "financial board" in the "Definitions" ( http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/CommunityBylaws#Definitions) under "Foundation": "The * Document Foundation may have trustees (... all members of the *Financial*, ... and Directors' boards)," as well as in the ESC paragraph (at least I understand "FB" as such): "Duties of the ESC is to provide expertise and information to the BoD, the AB, *the FB*, the Chairman, the Executive Director and any other officer of the Foundation" I don't think we should establish such a board right from the beginning, the Financial Officier should be enough - if it will be necessary it can be added later on.
