There's only a passage about «willingness to learn from and engage with the community» which despite the word "engage" is made into a passive light by «deeply understand their interests and concerns». This is not what we need from a trustee, in my opinion. What we need is trustees able to:
- *solicit* an ealthy discussion,
- *involve* more people in the WMF work and priorities and in the
discussions about them, 3) make the board stronger and more credible so that its not just a "vox clamantis in deserto" whose resolutions have no effect on reality (see Openness, probably also BLP... with all due respect and without repeating discussions we've had also in person) or are only monstruous wastes of time/resources for Wikimedia (see image filter [1]);
On the one hand, I find this comments relevant, as I have no idea what trustees are doing/supposed to do, not that information is really hidden, but not brang forward. On the other hand, not having bureaucracy clutering the wikimedia projects end user experience seems a good point.
- to *revolutionize* (if needed) a body so *sclerotic* that even
when we have elections discussions are deadly empty and boring,[2] we have 99.5 % abstention,[3] nobody asks or reads questions.[4]
