Yes, and let me say it in stronger terms: This is unacceptable. Community-selected seats have nothing to do with affiliates; affiliates are absolutely not the community. Community-selected seats must be an at-large election from Wikimedia editors from any candidate who cares to run, not taken from a "short list" of affiliate-approved candidates.
So - just for clarity - would you prefer these 2 seats to be selected only by affiliates, as they have been in previous years, without any involvement from community members who aren't in affiliates?
