Wait what? You blocked me from returning as a developer. Based on my |
| 16 |
human relation skills, or in your opinion lack there of.... |

How would you think I be fit for foundation Trustee? Which is a liason |
| 20 |
type role, at least with outside entities. That makes little to no |
| 21 |
sense. A developer need technical skills more than personal. A Trustee |
| 22 |
needs personal and not so much technical.... Great logic! |

It seems that foundation membership been messed up pretty bad. This |
| 25 |
seems to be the list of members. Which seems to only be developers. |

Per the by laws, one is only removed from membership via voluntary |
| 29 |
request, and/or majority vote of the trustees to remove a member. |

I may have requested removal, I seem to recall such. Though I am not |
| 35 |
sure others have. Seems the foundation is missing many members. Unless |
| 36 |
the trustees voted to remove many others. |
| 37 |

Also developers are not automatically added per bylaws. They must |
| 39 |
apply for such. |
