Why do some people in this community thrive on personal put-downs and insults?
When people make attacks like this on a representative it usually means they are avoiding real answers.

I know you can :)
Yes, that would be wonderful. Maybe try to focus on issues where we can work together, and move things forward towards tangible results.
What is not tangible about publishing the membership numbers?
Isn't an increase in transparency likely to help retain and grow membership and isn't that a worthwhile tangible outcome too?
Isn't the type of person who makes a valuable contribution in a group like FSFE likely to be the type of person who values transparency and elections too?
Or does FSFE aspire to have "supporters" who just give money and don't ask questions?
An association is fundamentally about the members. Downgrading fellows to supporters, minimizing the value of their contributions to FSFE (as in the announcement[1]) and generally treating them like children by having a separate membership class for the "adults" are all problems that need to be addressed if the dwindling membership is going to be resolved and other tangible outcomes achieved.
