All this seems awefully close. Potential members now have only 2 weeks
to join and have to appoint/elect board members basically within that
same period. Why is it so important to have the first board meeting on
June 22nd? What's the rush if it's a conference call anyways?

Somehow I'm not very comfortable with the voting process open while new
nominations can be made. Why can't we close the nomination process on
June 13th and then open the voting process from June 13th till June 20th?
