But in the end, I don't think Florence cares what I want, so I tried to point out to her why it is in *her* best interest to refuse to sign the agreement.
I expect she cares about what you want in as much as you are a member of the community and she clearly cares about what the community wants.
As for "the organisation side", I don't think the opinions of the staff members who created this agreement are going to be swayed by anything said here on foundation-l, and they haven't asked for input from us anyway. If you'd like me to go into further detail, let's take this discussion to an uncensored forum.
While I expect Mike was the one to actually write it, what goes in is up the board, not the staff. Clearly at least one member of the board does want input from us.
