Gnokii was not just a member who was removed, he is a nominated candidate for the board election [2].
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_election#Nominations:
as far as I know, he was only nominated by Nelson (and I didn't see this on any official mailing list) and during the discussion Nelson never reported this (although the discussion was so long I may have missed the fact), and we have no evidence gnokii was a candidate. However, Nelson was (is).

I don't want to start again the discussion on the other aspects of this problem.
Sorry, if I just repeated things.
Well, from where I sit all conditions for nomination to be a candidate in the current election for the Board have been met.
The person, S Kemter (aka Gnokii), was nominated and as per the requirements:
Nominations:
The election committee will take self-nominations, nominations by others and can nominate people for election. The election committee will contact the nominated people and ask them whether they are willing to stand for election. These nominations are private until accepted by the nominated people.
was approached by Thomas Schmidt by e-mail to which S Kempter responded that he had accepted the nomination and gave the URL of his blog where he states that he will be atanding for the Board.
The obvious thing is, S Kempter announced his confirment on 3th Januar on this very list and was removed on 4th January by the board.
It would be good to get a transparent information, who in the board voted for the candidates membership removal and who not.
Why did the election commite not protest upon its competence violation?
We did not protest, because we share the opinion that the board acted correctly.
