I agree too, just that I was not sure so far that this rename is final.
So now a name Leadership Team is final, no more confusion.

About Foundation, does foundation still exist at all? If exist, shall it
be represented on the site or just mentioned somewhere?

So I propose next changes on http://www.squeak.org:

1. Foundation and Board removed
2. Leadership Team added to Community, so that section will look like:

   Community
     HowTo
     Organization
     Teams
     Leadership Team

3. Leadership Team added as one of teams on the Teams page

Leadership team is here raised a bit above other teams because it is,
well, a leadership. That's why it is important to be more visible among
others.

To put it even on the first level, well, if leadership name yourself as
team, it should be closer to other teams .. :) But on the other side, if
Leadership Team will produce some more information like meeting reports
directly on the website, in that case it would be appropriate to put it
higher, for easier access.

Question remains only what to do with Foundation ...
