Signed guiding principles should be the very least. No clue how to best 
identify unique individuals to avoid cheating.

Anyone who wants to run, I guess - maybe only members should be allowed to 
run.

Maybe 2-3 weeks after the deadline for people to announce their candidacy.

I'd suggest that board members are elected for a period of two years, and that 
only two board members are up for election per year (one Novell, one 
non-Novell). This way some consistency in the board is ensured - as opposed 
to the risk of the entire board being replaced in one election.

It would probably be a good idea to also elect some substitutes - one 
non-Novell and one Novell - in case someone has a tragic accident, decides to 
jump ship, etc.
