I absolutely agree with Sydney. Clearly something should be done, but it doesn't need to happen right away - the servers will still be on for the time being. Better to make an eventual informed decision than rush into something right now, and potentially regret the consequences afterwards.

I also hope that the current Board members will thoughtfully consider whether it's in the best interests of the Wikimedia Foundation and the larger Wikimedia movement for them to continue as Board members.
The instability that would result from large scale resignations of Board members would be devastating to WMF.
That aside, under the best of circumstances, the volunteer BoT of WMF are faced with an extremely demanding and challenging work load. And, no volunteer board has the skill set to manage the problems that have come up over the last few months and have escalated out of control.
I strongly encourage giving the BoT time to react to the most recent comments, and develop a responsible plan of action.
