I agree with that it is necessary to inform relevant community and organizational instances before making such decisions. As a member of NomCom, I've been informed about Matt's appointing a couple of days earlier before it became a public information. However, I didn't know that it is connected to Omidyar's donation. (Does this information passed to internal-l? Did anyone talk about this except the Board and staff?) Note that Matt's background is strong enough for being a Board member, which means that I support his appointment. However, it would be good to make difference between "expert seats" and "donors seats". Mixing categories makes feeling that the Board is trying again to fix something with wrong tools. I was thinking that we've leaved that kind of behavior behind us. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
