Satoru,
(Sorry for Top Posting)
I feel that if he is serious, and doesn't want to have the chance to
make a different on the board, then a fresh start. It not fair for
those that wanted to have him on the board. Not only does it cheat
them with don't do a clean start, but it is unfair to all.
Nelson, do not fire from the hip. You have chance to make a different
by being on the board and please keep your membership. Be leader and
clam down and let this pass.
I think what everyone needs to do is step back, take a deep cleaning
breathe and then focus the project in hand. This is a year we can
shine, but all this in-fight is only going to hurt us.
I will go on record. I feel that the board did what was best for the
project. I can tell you from what I been reading the, the was a very
very hard decision for them. I but it wasn't just a few people that
complain, and for I am seeing with the board, they do try very hard to
work with everyone.
Now that happen, the board along with the membership group should work
on what do if something like this happens again. One way, I feel would
to be update the "Principle Guide Lines" to cover such action. But
that is for the board and the membership group to talk about, if you
feel that really need to be address, come to a board meeting, bring up
the topic for them. Board Meeting are open.
Again everyone. Do not quit. Do not throw away, what you have done.
Just take step back. Take a breathe. We don't need Civil discord.
I think it would be best for this thread to be stop for the good of the group.

Well, as one of the election committee members, I have to ask you whether this is your final decision or not. As you know, the voting phase has already begun and some of the Members might have voted you already.
@election committee members
We didn't suppose such a case and there's no rule to deal with. How should we respond to those who have already voted Nelson? Should the ballots for Nelson be just ignored, or should we undo and start fresh voting?
Best,
