Moreover, if a board member persistently doesn't do his job, and
refuses to resign, there's always removal.

You say "the community should feel responsibility in the possible
poorer results that might be expected", but if the community doesn't
have feedback over who it is that's giving poor results, and the
community doesn't have any removal power anyhow, then I disagree that
the community does have any responsibility over this.

This cloak-and-dagger treatment of what you apparently consider a big
enough problem to bring up on this list is not at all helpful.
