Hi all, I was just looking over the minutes from the first "town hall" meeting and read Rahul's question with interest: "Will the Board ever switch from 5 appointed/4 elected to a majority in the other direction?" The answer that Paul gave to this didn't seem clear to me, and I was wondering if a clarification was possible? Paul said: "-- but this question is academic until and unless Fedora has sponsors other than Red Hat." Why does Fedora having [significant] sponsors other than Red Hat make a difference to the make-up of the board? While I understand that Red Hat makes significant contributions to Fedora, I'm not sure I understand why it is correct that the majority of the board and the chair person with their veto should be appointed by Red Hat. I have further thoughts on the matter, but would rather not speak them until I understand other the reasons behind the status-quo better - I don't want to embarrass myself!
