That's great! I can't remember exactly when I brought up some of these
issues; maybe a half year ago. I just find people are losing interest in
what Haiku has/had to offer so I hope the changes are sooner rather than
later. It's hard enough as it is (as others point out) to find motivated
board members to manually update Haiku Inc's financial status, and when
help is offered, it's ignored. It's exactly why the board, as structured,
fails to properly support Haiku as outlined in their statement of purpose.
A more public style election and transparency would go along way IMHO to
improve the current situation.
