<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Marco,</div><div><br></div>We don't need to vote on this. The honorary PSC members are * in addition * to the regular PSC members. They don't have an obligation to take part actively at the PSC if they don't want to. As such, we don't count them as "regular" PSC member, but they have the same rights as other PSC members.<br><div><br></div><div>Also, nowhere in the charter is there a written number how many PSC members there should or need to be. Only the board (chair, vice-chair and treasurer) are listed as absolutely necessary. Everything else is at the discretion of the PSC and not defined in the charter. We can define how many people we want to have on the PSC and we don't need to vote on it. To me it was always clear that we should replace Richard after he decided to resign.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks and greetings,</div><div>Andreas<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 23 Mar 2020 at 17:17, Marco Bernasocchi <<a href="mailto:marco@qgis.org">marco@qgis.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
