By-Laws for Hildonfoundation

would it be possible to add to the by-laws referendum a question along the
line of

+ do you grant the current council mandate to become directorate of
foundation and inherent elevated powers?

if the majority says yes (and the by-laws are accepted, of course) the
Council carries on.
the alternatives can be sorted out if / when we encounter them... 8-)

good work on the by-laws, btw.

I have just one last last question (at the moment :)), and only out
of curiosity, not because I want to push in any direction:
Why do you think the Council shouldn't be the governing body in case
the maemo community decided to choose a servive provider?

Thanks again,
gregor
