[Osmf-talk] Members, associate members, and running for board

[Paul Norman]

I'm not certain of the details of the Companies Act and AoA. If running 
for the OSMF board, do you have to be a member in the companies' act 
sense, or can you be an associate member?

I believe any board member must be a member, not an associate member, 
but I'm not sure about candidates. It's also worth noting that board 
member's contact information is deposited with the Companies House[1], 
where it is publicly viewable[2], and the primary reason for being an 
associate member would be privacy concerns.
