I'm glad to see you're interested in reshaping the OGB and will thus
presumably be taking some role in the upcoming election, either as a
candidate or someone with some serious questions to ask the candidates.
(Though of course, as a fellow Sun employee, I must urge you to think
long and hard before becoming a candidate, as it could have serious
consequences on your career at Sun if you plan on delivering mandates
and ultimatums such as the one you suggest. Going on the record to
publicly speak against the decisions of your employers upper management
can be quite career limiting at any company, and Sun is no exception.)
