If the Board's only reaction to negative feedback from openSUSE Members is to stubbornly refuse to consider that feedback and instead escalate the situation by saying "if you dont like it, run a distrust motion", then I don't think the very concept of a Board is suitable for a Project with openSUSE's Guiding Principles.
I don't see that there is "only" and "stubborn" reactions. Simon explained, I explained. You told that you are not satisfied by the clarification. So maybe you might want to sweep in front of your own door regarding stubbornness.
Thankfully, I know from the experience that the Board can operate with more nuance than the binary choice you post here.
It wasn't a binary choice I gave, just yet another option. But of course you can keep on leaving out the broader picture painted and just go for singular, out of context statements.
It is true, I currently have my doubts about the Board, justified by the actions/inactions of the Board and the responses in this thread.
That said, I retain hope that some individuals in the Board will be able to influence things so that the Board may act more consistently with the Project's Guiding Principles in the future.
...or at least how you interpret these principles.
So I will not be baited into escalating my disapproval into a full blown motion for your removal from the Board. > I think having my disapproval publicly stated is the only way available for the Board to improve in the spirit of openness, quality, transparency and respect which the Project is meant to operate under.
Wait, you only raised your voice and won't take action? Uuh.
