Dariusz, would you please tell us who suggested Arnnon Geshuri for a seat on the Board?
AFAIK we have not been sharing this information historically, and I don't think we are going to now - even the Board members themselves don't know, and quite likely should not know who nominated them. I also fail to see why it would matter - people should stand or fail on their own.
I can, however, generally add that we have not collected any nominations from our donors, if this helps.
Dariusz, my request is that you make it public on this occasion. Given the new trustee's involvement in this https://pando.com/2014/03/25/newly-unsealed-documents-show-steve-jobs-brutally-callous-response-after-getting-a-google-employee-fired/, the nomination is surprising. I'm also concerned that you seemed not to be aware of the background, but you supported the appointment, so it raises a general question about how these decisions are made.
Trust in the Board is low at the moment. Transparency will go a long way to restoring it.
