Re: Election Boycott

[Bill Haneman <Bill Haneman Sun COM>]

I agree.

I think that Jody is correct in that there is information available on 
the Board's financials.  But I also think the info could and should be 
made available in a more direct and timely fashion.  I support 
increasing the transparency of the GF board in general, and GF finances 
in particular.
