			To be a truly community based and perhaps a good 501c3 NonProfit,
			it has to serve the public good, and including those community members
			that are affected (i.e. users of the software, kids, teachers,
			family members, community members, not just developers),
			or underserved by the software/ product (those who dno't get it,
			i.e. people without machines that will boot from USB/ CDR),
			as inclusion makes a better product and

			'''Feedback and views:'''

			Ben has identified some very good points about not giving power to those who are seeking it (.. and thus likely to abuse it). However, I agree with Jim that the Board cannot be relegated to do secretarial work. The process of selecting board members should be transparent, and as democratic as possible, but once in place it should be trusted to make substantial decisions - of course with the checks and balances (like the referendum on controversial issues.) I like the point Jim makes about accountability. I think the Board should have some dedicated full time support staff to help with the routine work. Admitted that in such voluntary-community projects paying for services is an issue but at the same time we should not be utilizing high powered resources for something that can be done by a less experienced person who is willing to do it as a job but not exciting enough to volunteer for.
