who have agreed to give a bit of their time and expertise, to help us
navigate in the difficult waters of collaborative software, free
licensing, free speech, education for all, governance, sustainability
models...
We really appreciate.
How did we chose these people ? Either because they were already
frequently in touch with us, or because we thought their experience
could help. "We" is both the board and the community, as the board also
contacted some of the people whose names showed up when I asked help on
this list.
Is that list closed ? Of course not. Please feel free to discuss further
additions that could be necessary in the future.

I had suggested Stephen Gaskin in correspondence with Jimbo, but while I did receive a
favorable reply from Stephen, no response from Jimbo.
