Hi Michael, Andreas, * letting the rest of the discussion stand for the moment - this much:

Which in turn means there's always the issue of people wanting to stand for the other body, to not be able to serve their full term - regardless of term lengths. I don't personally consider people from the MC standing for the board to be a large issue - if this is not becoming a habit. Since there's a hard problem for TDF, at the very least, should the size of the MC shrink below the required number of officers (which is 3, as per https://www.documentfoundation.org/statutes.pdf ยง12, 3). Beyond that, I agree with what you say Michael. Having significant brain drain from the MC might affect how well we can attract new members, and also perhaps how much time and energy we invest in reviewing applications. All the best, -- Thorsten
