Yes, you were quite definitely the candidate i wrote least about in my
analysis and i felt a bit bad about it - even if my conclusion was
mostly positive.  I think it is good you clarify your position on a
number of points further here and i would encourage others to do the
same (like Allan also did by the way).

I think that realization is very important also from the other side -
people could do a lot more to positively affect the actions, decisions
and overall direction of the OSMF by contributing to the discussion of
OSMF matters.  It is unfortunate that public discussion of OSMF matters
on open channels plays such a marginal role in a lot of cases these
days.  The board and WGs could of course do a lot to support this (by
communicating early, in depth and in the open on things they are
working on and actively engaging in public discussion) but ultimately
it is up to everyone of us to require this from the board and WGs and
make use of the possibility of public discussion.
