Thank you for the input. At least one board member who voted against the readmission of Stallman has resigned, and it would seem that the vote was actually among all the voting members, which includes the board. So it seems things are quite complicated -- should the call be for all the existing voting members to be replaced? I'm not sure, which is why I suggested just saying something about what's most important, which is the removal of rms. -- Sean Whitton
