This is one of my concerns, you are right. Thank you for starting a
dialogue on this.
The larger one, perhaps less of a concern than a goal, is an attempt
to nudge us into moving from a bunch of people who happen to know
each other and who try to work together on certain common interests,
to becoming an effective board.
The simplest ;-) way of being an effective board is to start acting
like one, I believe. And that starts with
1. a common understanding of who has which role and what
responsibilities that entails
2. everybody living up to those responsibilities as a matter of course.
That's the table stakes for a board. Once we don't have to think
about them any more because things always happen that way, we can
start to actually do our work as a board and be effective.
We need to get there as quickly as possible, for our own sanity (less
waste of time and energy) and for the OpenID community as a whole
that depends on us to do a good job.
