In what ways would you seek to restructure it? How would being a board
member help you with restructuring the Friends of GNOME programme?
What resources would you steer towards this?

As the board minutes show from a few weeks ago, the board has been in
touch with some advisory board members to find out if they could
donate some person time towards the upgrade. Since then, the sysadmin
team has also been in touch with someone who may be able to port the
only customisation that we really need. What resources would you steer
towards the goal?
