[Foundation-l] Board-announcement: Board Restructuring

[Florence Devouard]

In a private organization, a "manager" can motivate a group by using 
various incentives. Saying publicly that someone is just not doing his 
job is not exactly the best way to stimulate an already not-so-active 
person.

The best solution is probably to have a cohesive group, with a deep 
sense of the collective. A cohesive group, with complementary skills and 
compatible personnalities.

The way to have such a group is by making it possible to someone to 
actually define which group he wants, and to recruit the members of this 
group.
This is not exactly how we build the board. The majority of members are 
chosen by others, regardless of the cohesiveness of the group.

(I do not say that elections are a bad idea. I like elections. However, 
the community should feel responsibility in the possible poorer results 
that might be expected)
