I'm not sure, whether that would be legally possible. At least it would
require a change of the bylaws. Anyway, the question remains: Who is "the
community"?
BTW, AFAIK the FreeBSD Foundation is set up very similar to Haiku, Inc.
Apparently it works for them. I really don't see a reason for "the
community" or contributors to meddle with the affairs of the NPO. But
that's just my opinion and everyone's entitled to their own.
CU, Ingo
