Quote from the document you linked: "Once the PMC member's resignation is received on a mailing list of the Foundation, the resignation is considered effective (however, the PMC member has 72 hours to withdraw their resignation). Notifying the board is not required, but encouraged to ease tracking." We're not quite the Hotel California. : o) Greets, Myrle
