I find this statement a bit hard to understand. How can you say that
you're not criticizing the board when your keynote at last year's SOTM
was essentially that you did not have confidence in OSMF and wanted to
focus on a commercial that entity that you control take over those
functions?

Is this a good or bad thing? What metrics are good metrics to judge the board? If we look at those same metrics for OSMF US, where do they sit?


Why don't you tell us, because I'm not following what you're saying.

> If the board doesn't push to run great conferences and secedes that, doesn't meet face to face and has email discussions about telephony options or whether meetings are even possible... what *does* it do? Why should we keep it around?

So you're suggesting no Foundation whatsoever?
