It seems there are voting members > who are not on the board? Yeah, sure (as before: speaking only for myself). Because I thought that the board/voting members distinction was a too obscure implementation detail of the FSF bylaws that would have been lost on 99% of the letter readership. On the other hand the notion of a decision making board is a fairly common notion that most people who are even vaguely familiar with any non-profit organization would understand. Note also that requesting that all voting members resign is not a verifiable demand, given that the list of such members is not publicly known. But, again, this just an implementation detail for me. To be respected, the spirit of the letter entails that the entire leadership at FSF (board + voting members) resign, as a precondition to start rebuilding trust in the organization.
