Let's see if I understand this... There can be an unlimited number of "Contributors". The number of "Leads" is set by the board, presumably based on areas of activity (i.e., if the board decides the design of PySoy is essentially in 5 semi-independent pieces, they may declare there to be five "Leads". The maximum number of "Directors" is fixed at 5, and must be chosen from the existing "Leads".
In the scenario that there are 10 leads, 5 of whom are directors, and one of the directors says "You know what, between my job and my new-born daughter, I can't really commit as much time to PySoy as I had been, and I need to step down as director and lead.", I see two votes being held: one to replace his position as Developer and one to replace his position as Lead. Voting: I am uncertain of the mechanisms of voting. Say one lead says they are willing to step into a directorship. Do they automatically "win", or do they have to get 50% of the existing directors to approve them? Is voting to raise done by "approval" (i.e., if there are multiple candidates, can I say "yes" to more than one, or am I limited to just one)?
