No... as a sitting community elected board member. I am not going to
waste time into looking into the Foundation again.  Max Spevack did a
complete summary as to why the Foundation structure won't work for the
day to day operation of Fedora in 2006. Any credible discussion would
have to address the issues communicated then.   From my point of view
nothing material have changed since 2006.  If you want to waste your
time talking about it... feel free... but don't expect me or any
sitting Board member to pay much attention to simple opinionating,
after a significant amount of legwork was done to prepare for a
Foundation structure only to discover the legal requirements for
certify non-profit status would be quite difficult to meet for this
project.
