If you're unhappy with the current chairman you don't even have to eject him. Quote from the Articles of Association governing the running of OSMF: "A member of the Board may [...] at any time, summon a meeting of the Board by notice served upon the several members of the Board. A member of the Board who is absent from the United Kingdom shall not be entitled to notice of a meeting." And: "The Board may meet together for the dispatch of business, adjourn and otherwise regulate their meetings as they think fit, and determine the quorum necessary for the transaction of business. Unless otherwise determined, two shall be a quorum." So if the timing is right, you'll probably just have to buy one or two board members to get what you want ;-) Bye Frederik (This is meant as a funny way to say that, when other important business has been resolved, we should perhaps one day clean up the AoA; it is not meant to suggest that there was something wrong with those serving on the OSMF board.) -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail frede...@remote.org ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
