If you are on the Board of a company / organisation you have a fiduciary responsibility to it. That’s crystal clear to me.

Yes, Board members are meant to represent our interests and we can choose to replace them if we are unhappy with their performance.

Hi,

Yes, it we chose to read different parts of the same page. The words "board members are fully responsible towards the RIPE NCC membership" look pretty clean cut to me. Remember, one cannot really serve two masters. One must choose one to avoid agency issues.

The RIPE NCC Executive Board’s role is fairly well explained on the RIPE site:

https://www.ripe.net/about-us/executive-board/

They *represent* the members, but they are *responsible* to/for the organisation
