> Opinions? IMHO that the board must have, at least one member from each Community. I'm part of Blogdrake.net, so I'll talk about my experience.
Active members "use" to be always the same. From time to time, a new user shows the "gift" DYS (Do it Your Self). We know each other (virtually, because we're from different countries / continents). So, we know very well who collaborates and in which area. We know who is always translating, who is always reporting a bug, who is helping to improve the forum (code, modules, etc). We know who "knows". So, for the board, to have a member is, not only necessary but invaluable. IMHO that consider for the board only people who can go personally to a conference in Europe to be face to face will leave aside a lot of people that works very hard and contribute a lot just because they can't travel. A few years ago I worked under Romain d'Alverny's "command" (a real pleasure) as member of the MDKTrans group, translating the Mandriva web site to Spanish. The MDKTrans group, did a good job with only one SVN access and even with its members in different countries. I think none of the MDKTrans group could travel to European conference (maybe someone), but even so we could contribute. Of course, this is just my opinion.
