The governance structure of the VCF 501c3 is on the web: http://vcfed.org/wp/about/governance/ I agree it would be great to see more transparency from the board on governance topics for the group - vision, priorities, budgets, investments and other decisions. Before retiring I served for almost 20 years as a research director for a large non-profit (also a 501c3) research and engineering company in Northern VA. I can say from that experience that communication, transparency and input from constituents are critical elements of organizational governance. I also served in a voluntary capacity for a number of organizations (FIRST Lego League, Boy Scouts of America, and our local Homeowners Association) and I found those volunteer efforts to be much more stressful, so I fully sympathize with what I imagine Evan may be going through. Though, by chance, Evan and I still haven't had an opportunity to meet in person, from what I know from these postings and observing a few of the VCF events he has been consistently a strong leader and a passionate proponent of our cause. I certainly hope that the Board fulfills its duties and works to resolve any personal differences within its ranks. We all share a passion for the preservation of computing history. I truly believe that, but for the efforts of groups like VCF, much of this critical history would be lost forever. Our mission is too important to be jeopardized by personal disagreements. * Glenn From: vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic-bounces@lists.vcfed.org> On Behalf Of Ben Greenfield via vcf-midatlantic Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2019 6:57 AM To: vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> Cc: Ben Greenfield <ben@cogs.com>; Evan Koblentz <evan@vcfed.org> Subject: Re: [vcf-midatlantic] I'm resigning
