<meta name="cvsdate" content="$Date$" />
</head>
<body>
<h1>GNOME Foundation Reducing Board Size Referendum</h1>
<p>
Any member of the GNOME Foundation can suggest a referendum. To be
accepted, a request for a referendum must be endorsed by 10% of the
Membership. The overall referendum process is overseen by the
Membership and Elections Committee, which can be reached at <a
href="mailto:elections&#64;gnome&#46;org">elections&#64;gnome&#46;org</a>.
</p>
<p>
In September 2005, some Foundation members discussed a possible reduction
of size of the GNOME Foundation board of directors. The discussion took
place on <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/">foundation-list&#64;gnome&#46;org</a>.
After much discussion, a petition was made to request a referendum. <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/2005-October/msg00010.html">More
than 10% of the Membership</a> signed the petition.
