This is quite a change. The project would be without a board for some two months then.
Who is going to carry on their responsibilities? The chair alone??
(This is all the more relevant if you are looking towards a foundation.)
Yes, agreed, this would be disruptive and damaging. Board should step down *after* the election, but LONG ENOUGH AFTER to hand over the reins and help the newly elected Board get up to speed. Of course, in such a situation, it is likely not all the outgoing Board Members will be happy to remain after the non-confidence petition if the petition is successful. -- -Gerry Makaro openSUSE Member Fraser-Bell on Github
