You are probably right, but who would make the better board member: an average lawyer (or whatever) that's a Wikimedian or a top lawyer that isn't? Obviously, the board needs a decent number of Wikimedians on it, but there is no particular need for the whole board to be Wikimedians. (Well, Wikimedians prior to their appointment - my definition of Wikimedian includes WMF board members, whether they came from the community or not.) _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
