[Board] President and info mail aliases

[Massimiliano Cannata]

Thank you for the offer Arnulf!
I think that we could temporary forward the mails to the private-bord list.

Actually I don't see so a big need for a quick and fast replacing of Jeff
roles.
This will be certainly a topic for discussion for the coming F2F meeting of
January.

Best,
maxi
