Well, it will make thinning out the list of trustees much simpler. |

I'll go ahead and nominate seemant and myself, and also wolf31o2 if he's |
| 9 |
interested. Seemant has been working with the legal types to get our |
| 10 |
IRS not-for-profit filing finished, and Chris has taken over the store |
| 11 |
and been our trademark enforcement dude recently. |

Assuming nobody complains too much, let's assume that the nominations |
| 14 |
and elections for trustees will coincide with those for council members. |
| 15 |
I'm still suggesting that we limit the number of trustees to 5, assuming |
| 16 |
that we will quickly replace any trustees who depart during his or her |
| 17 |
term. As for Foundation membership, that's still a tricky issue, since |
| 18 |
the bylaws were never approved (and, in their current form, would not be |
| 19 |
approved, since a quorum would be virtually unattainable). So, I'm |
| 20 |
going to suggest we use the same terms as last year, which is that any |
| 21 |
Gentoo dev who has been a dev for one year at the date of the election |
| 22 |
is eligible to vote, and membership in the Foundation is automatically |
| 23 |
granted to any eligible dev who does vote. Meanwhile, we'll put off |
| 24 |
getting the bylaws revised and accepted until after the upcoming vote. |

Comments, complaints, burnings in effigy? |
