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 …

Not sure why those are top 5, but
@mmillions is a@FSF employee (probably'd prefer not to be called "open source" foundation),@EclipseFdn ED@mmilinkov's term ended this year.@Apache's@jimjag is a board alum. Current reps from@debian@Wikimedia,@tdforg (x2)@perlfoundation1 reply 0 retweets 3 likes -

Good point on
@mmillions. So at least@fsf is represented. Still my point stands for the other 4 most influential open source foundations. Your argument that you have a few alums doesn't really address my issues (unless you keep alums as advisors)3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

Not speaking of OSI specifically, but what is strange is that most of the go-to "experts" and "leaders" within
#opensource now are people without any opensource development experience at all. Sure, not all contributions are code, but it's weird nonetheless.2 replies 0 retweets 3 likes
+1000! btw, when you say "development experience" to me it translates into being a vital part of an active OS organization, rather than "must sling code". E.g. there are plenty of members @TheASF who don't write code and yet would make an awesome addition to OSI.
