Hum not following you're reasoning here I would think the layout of the 
board and privileges would need to exist before hand but not get 
re-evaluated afterwards for those wanting to become members equivalent 
stature to Red Hat and willing to aid in future grow of the project.

I would say that those considering if they should start pouring water in 
their own pool or simply just put on a bathing suit and apply for a 
membership and jump into our existing one wont since the layout for the 
board does not exist for them and we do not publicly share the number of 
$ Red Hat is spending into the project ( or any other sponsor for that 
matter ) on yearly bases ( as far as I know ) which I'm pretty sure we 
need to make public ( that is if we dont already ) if we are open for 
new members equivalent stature to Red Hat to joining the project.

Is my logic flawed?
