That's not a fair characterization, Dave.  We can't come to consensus
that shrinking the board is a good idea, and told you to go ahead and
propose the referendum so we could discuss it on foundation-list.  And
if the point of such shrinking is to remove dissent (or the possibility
of dissent), it seems an even worse idea.  We only had eight people at
the meeting today, afterall.
