Edgar, what makes you think that Andreas is some kind of Deity (or should be)
to stand and rule on top of everyone?
During the past year, attending the board's meeting i never felt that
Andreas using a brute force to rule the board.
He's got many initiatives, but all of them were backed by a strong
reasoning, not by blatant words 'lets do it my way, because i want
that'. His offers is always a well-considered, weightened and
reasonable.
Not a surprise, there was a little disagreement from most of us (if
ever) about things he proposed.

That's why i think that community will win, if he will be allowed to
run for a next year.
