Thank you. I think everyone on the list is anonymous, at least to me;
I don't go Googling names/addresses seen here, anyway, so I only know
most people here by what they've posted. I also treat names given as
handles; I "know better" than to treat them, in my mind, as "names"
per se.

Agreed, vigorously. These people have powers beyond the ordinary
community, so they should shoulder appropriate responsibilities as
well.
Members of the Foundation have additional powers as well (namely,
voting), but it doesn't seem appropriate for them to approve the
disclosure of their personal information to anyone beyond, say, the
relevant officers on the Board - membership, finances?
>I don't think anyone is advocating anonymous board members?
I don't think so, no - I don't think it's even come up (before you
asked now, of course).
