I would not laugh. I would cry. Because it would mean that we have been
unable to get a full representivity. As I stated before, it is imho very
important to have a full coverage from all corners of the volunteers. It may
be obvious that I do not see internal-l as "all volunteers", so it is indeed
important to have a significant portion of members from the non-internal-l.

This is one of the reasons I asked to "nominate" others, to get names on the
list that would otherwise not be in. To get names in from people who are not
on foundation-l (which is not including all volunteers either of course).
However, it have to be names from people that are dedicated to the cause,
and willing to invest time and effort in it of course :)
