[Foundation-l] Three fundraising job openings

[Nathan]

Does every decision, whether about confidentiality in negotiations or new
hires
(to perform the fundraising that is consistently demanded on this list) need
to be
quarterbacked by people whose overt qualifications are participating in a
mailing
list? Credentials aren't required for editing articles, because it makes
sense not
to. On the other hand, amateur volunteers don't operate multi-million dollar
companies
on a day to day basis. Chad, Jon, Thomas, others - don't you think it makes
sense
to stay focused on the big picture and the Board, and trust that until
demonstrated
otherwise the Foundation has the right people in the right place to make
sure it
stays afloat? Do we really need to question, at each hire, if the salary is
in the
budget? Valid criticism on major issues is totally separate from sniping at
every
single announcement.
