Then I really don't understand what your criticism is aiming at. Your
comment read like disappointment about the results but in Aik-Siong
Koh's case I know that not only was the project delivered, it is
actually being shipped in the current Cobalt builds.

I am not objecting to any person. I am supporting Aik-Siong Koh. If the
board decides to support someone else, fine. But I think Aik-Siong Koh
can fill the job and having more people involved in running the
community affairs might be a good thing.

Certainly. If we have multiple contenders for the position the board
should choose. I have no problem with that. However ... none of this is
a reason to accuse people that they've been "taking the money and run".
