Out with one financial supporter of the Foundation and in with another. It
seems my calls for democratic selection of Board members fell on deaf ears.

I have nothing against Jan-Bart personally, just as I had nothing against
Tim Shell. No doubt there were other factors that went into his selection
besides his role in the Kennisnet hosting arrangement. But I have trouble
believing that he would have been selected without it. I oppose his Board
membership on principle, just as I continue to oppose that of Michael Davis.
