Individual members representation?

As we are approaching year end some retrospective 
thoughts and

looks ahead occur.

 

Would it make sense to add a Board member who 
represents all

the individual members?

 

Clearly there are large numbers now contributing to 
every OASIS

team.  But only corporate members get to vote 
and nominate 

board members.

 

Do we need balance, and would input from individual 
members help?

Would this help toward working with groups such as 
ISO in the 

future?

 

Some ground rules would be needed - and also OASIS 
would need

to cover expenses for the person - as obviously 
they do not have

a corporate sponsor.  If the person 
subsequently joined a corporation

would this automatically trigger a new appointment 
- or could it

be discretionary?  

 

We could certainly also have a meeting room and 
feedback area

for individual members via Kavi as another 
resource.

 

Personally as an individual member I would 
definately value reports

back from the board from an independent member 
there.

 

OK - so I've taken the lid off a large can of worms 
here, but this

was an itch so I thought I'd better scratch 
it!  

 

What are the pro's 
and con's?  Is this workable?
