No big and high words please :)
What we're trying to say is that the functions of a BoD member do not
relate to these matters. Your question is indeed valid but is simply out
of context, because it is not up to the BoD members to decide these
questions or to take part in this kind of work because they would be BoD
members. That's all...

Best,
Charles.
