Ok, is it me or is it really weird that @OpenSourceOrg doesn't have anybody on its board with strong ties to any of the 5 major open source foundations: @TheASF @EclipseFdn @linuxfoundation @mozila and @fsf ? https://opensource.org/docs/board-annotated …
Ah. As mentioned on another sub-thread, Apache is no longer an Affiliate Member, and thus they cannot nominate candidates for the Board. The only way for someone w/ASF affiliation to be elected now would be as an Individual Member. ASF was a member, and we have invited them back.

For accuracy, FSF is not an Affiliate Member, but
@mmillions was elected by the individual membership. -
I was about to point that same fact out to illustrate my other issue: understanding why two of the most prominent true *charity* OSS foundations elected not to affiliate could be useful for OSI as well.
