Indeed, I think the board is essentially unanimous (though I do not 
speak for anyone else of course) in desiring that if we can get 
specialized expertise *and* a community member for one of the appointed 
seats, all the better.

We have 2 of those right now: for legal matters, Michael Snow.  For 
technical matters, Domas.

I would not expect that to materially change in the future, although 
with a 10 member board we now have "room" without affecting the 
community nature of the board materially to bring in a treasurer (like 
Stuart) and similar.
