It seems to me this is not quite correct although - since the work of 
the HOT members is not in public - i cannot really say for sure.

In addition to the right (and in case of HOT apparently the obligation) 
to vote for the board you also have the right - together with your 
fellow members - to decide who becomes a member.  To me this seems a 
quite fundamental difference to the OSMF.
