Yup. Overnight. We needed to expand the board :-)

Yeah, it is no perfect as of today. The mention of staff and officers 
was added at the last moment, and we apparently did not re-re-read the 
whole text well. Original mention was board+manager. Manager being an 
awfully fluttery word...
I'll list all the little points to be fixed and will propose an minor 
update soon (before 45 days :-)).

For now, spirit of the law please.
Pledge and questionnaire for board members.
Questionnaire for staff (Brad, Brion, Mark, Tim, Danny and whoever else 
there is as of today)
Replace "member of the board of the Foundation" by "employee of the 
Foundation".
