Perhaps this little discussion is misleading. Some members of the community, who are not board members, but who are of course highly respected community members, have been discussion possible new directions for the foundation which would apparently involve me moving to New York or DC (which isn't going to happen, by the way), and opening an office there.
Nobody has suggested that you or any other board member would need to move. Board members need not be in any Wikimedia office every day. The location of the main office (that is, the one where the executive director and most of the staff work) should be, IMO, dictated by where we can most easily maximize connections with like-minded organizations and with the relevant representatives of the nations we want to work with.
