The things you mention are one area where I would agree with you.
However,
there are other things tied into this, which are far better handled
by a
cooperation. For example the Fink Logo has to be owned by
"someone". The
individual ideas and ideas that are in the Fink package manager
might be
something we wish to protect in the future. The name "Fink" might
be protected
in the future and other things that are simply better handled by a
body that
does not belong to a single individual. As we believe that Fink
belongs to the
community we would like the things that "belong to Fink" also
belong to a
"legal" community. The Board of directors is such a community in my
humble
opinion.
Another good example would be finkmirrors.net. I think all would
agree that we'd be better off if an organization owned and managed
that domain rather than burdening an individual with that
responsibility.
