As Popper I believe said, democracy is not so much about being able
to vote for somebody, it is about being able to get rid of somebody.
I think there is no problem with having relatively shorter time
frames (could be even shorter than 2 years) but allowing board
members (or officers, for that matter) to stand again in the next
election. That allows for as much continuity as the electorate is
willing to stomach ;-)
