Hmm. Now *why* exactly did they say that? I'm sure that they didn't say it
just because they felt like it, but rather, that there were reasons behind
that statement. If those reasons are made public (as much as it is permitted
by common sense, of course), then we would know why adding a restriction for
[ex-]employees has its benefits.

True, but one of the comments which came back after
last years audit was
that we should separate our board of trustees more from the daily
operations and the foundation office. The same thing was confirmed by
our search firm when we hired them. When checking with them about this
issue the general feeling was that having (former) employees on the
board would be a step back in this process on which we are now making
more and more progress.
