[Foundation-l] upcoming board elections?

[Jan-Bart de Vreede]

Hi Phoebe and all,

We are electing three people to the board this summer.

The way things were designed the chapter seats (2) are appointed in  
every EVEN year, and the directly elected seats (3) will be elected  
every ODD year. Obviously we might have to make an exception this year  
because its the first time around. This is something we are currently  
discussing with the chapters. Just as a reminder, the appointed seats  
(4) and the founders seat (1;) are up for re-appointment every year.

The election committee will probably update the meta page in the near  
future :)
