But I think that some old members will always be re-elected (Maybe I'm wrong, but I think we can ignore this risk). And a public voting is probably a lot of work -- I don't want to organize that twice a year. And I prefer a "1 year stable group with people that know each other and know how to make compromises" over a "group that is shuffled and confused by new members every six months". BTW, does anyone know how Gnome or Debian handle this? Gnome elects the whole board once a year iirc.
