I'm sorry you resent about me telling that but I'm sure you are smart 
enough to understand what I mean.
My proposal was/is an attempt to give a way to build up a 'task force' to do 
some 'work' on behalf of representativity given by voters (endorsers).
I don't see so much useful for the whole community an all-or-nothing 
commitment (that is 'being a director or nothing at all')
And if there is consensus about building a task force that way 
the first goal is to allow people who are not driven by the all-or-nothing 
mood to get involved if they feel to. 
It was not told to be offensive toward some people but as a redundant way to 
bring all candidates to their responsabilities toward their endorsers. 
Howewer it seems there is no consensus about a thing like this
so there should be no concerns at all.
