There is a "president" position on the board, but it is not particularly different than any other board member. The president presides at board meetings if needed. However all board members have equal votes. If you believe Ray represents your wishes, nominate him for the board, and vote for him. In my opinion, EMC should always strive to be an "industrial" quality controller. But we should not turn our backs on "hobby" users either. To imply that "hobby practices" are unsafe is rather insulting. I may work on EMC as a hobby, but in my day job I design 200-1000 horsepower drives for a major industrial supplier. I am well aware of safety issues in an industrial control environment. I also am well aware that the safety of a machine is determined by the person who does the machine integration, NOT by the software. You can build a safe machine with EMC, and you can build an unsafe machine with EMC.
