<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@gnome.org">elections@gnome.org</a>.

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@gnome.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.
