| @joepie91:pixie.town | those two things are just fundamentally incompatible if you want community governance | 13:26:26 |

there needs to be no uncertainty, no doubt, whatsoever, that a decision made within a team is going to remain unchallenged Then let's be consistent with that: if (say) the NixCon NA team accepts a certain sponsor, nobody challenges that?
I also would like to know what team decisions board members have interfered with. | 13:41:33 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | have you read a word of what I've said? | 13:42:18 |

there are many ways to solve that, but one thing that is certain is that as long as eelco both holds a position of (board) authority and abrasively butts into decisionmaking procedures, we will not have functioning community governance I don't think the board authority is as much of a problem as the implicit authority that comes with being the BDFL. If we don't want a BDFL, I think we should say so explicitly and not act like we have one (on all sides). | 13:53:25 |

| @joepie91:pixie.town | BDFL is maybe a better description, yes | 13:56:07 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | but the board is still the one who holds the legal authority in the end | 13:56:28 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | and so a declaration to that effect would still need to involve them | 13:56:47 |

I also would like to know what team decisions board members have interfered with. so the thing with this is that I would be more inclined to answer questions if they weren't a question that was answered several messages ago, and a question that a reference (namely the open letter) was already provided for | 13:58:19 |
