Actually I'm less worried about Brian than about the over-presentation
of existing corporate members and conflict of interests. Even though I
believe that all community nominees working for a company already a
corporate member, will be useful board members and will have a lot to
contribute - I also recognize the conflict of interested and the true
intend of the community balancing the corporate members is somewhat lost.
If I'd have run for a board seat, doing so as Eddy or StartCom would
have been about the same thing, because I am Mr. StartCom undeniable.
Hence I'm less concerned what Brian concerns. Needless to say that the
current corporate board members are a different league than what Brian
represents (if at all).
