Correct.
I didn't read the text again, but iirc, before the board can appoint people, the nomination period is extended first to allow new candidates to run for the elections. If we don't have enough candidates after that, then we're already in a bad situation, so appointing people seems like an okay solution to move forward in such a case.

In the case of insufficient nominations the first goal is to extend the nomination period and get more candidates, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
