 My understanding of the last two-three years is that there has been a
 lot of work to fix the books of the foundation, and this is good. I
 would like to publically thank you, Robin, for this work.

 I do not have much to comment on for these two.

This is definitely not my skill set, so I don't have much to say, but I
do think the foundation should continue long-term and go for one of
these options. While the council represents the technical leadership of
the distribution, the foundation owns the trademark and logo. I feel
that we need a legal entity of some sort that actually owns those
interests.

Thanks,

William
