I don't think it really wants comments. I got "Your comment submission failed for the following reasons: Invalid request" which is rather irritating when I spent a while writing a reply. I wrote: I feel it would be better if TPF was open for membership. Anyone should be capable of being a member, even if they are required to program in perl or something like that. I feel it would be best if board members were elected for 1 year (to show they can do it), re-electable for 3 years, then re-electable for 2 years (if they're really good) and then have to rest for 1 year (to let someone else try and avoid burnout). I think TPF should be involved in actively promoting Perl only if others aren't promoting it enough. TPF should also be careful trying to help businesses using Perl, and about having paid employees. Grants should not be more than 50% of TPF's income. I'd like an annual report and published agendas and minutes. I don't know what TPF has now.
