Well, looking at the previous elections results, I see a lot of Novell,
Red Hat (and in the past, Sun) people in the board. There were some
"independant" people too, but not that much.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing, just trying to show some facts.

So, if I follow your logic, I would say we shouldn't accept more than
2 (or 3) people from the same company in a board with 11 directors.
Does it sound like a change you would support?
