Excellent point. Believe me, I don't want to mess up with this. So... several options (non exclusive from each other): - this is going to be a founding board, we may set up a renewal of a part of if in the next weeks/months (that is, not waiting for one full year or next FOSDEM); - we invite/elect one/two people for that (best, I believe); - the board is not all; it's important, but active members are as well; and we will have to rely on teams working among themselves and reporting to the board; - goodwill and trust is crux; the communication flow must be encouraged and assumed by the board as well as all members; we don't expect the board to ignore what happens in the community, otherwise, how would the whole thing turn out?... - other?
