Free Software Foundation adds three board members

Description:
The Free Software Foundation (FSF) has announced the addition of three new 
members to its board: John Gilmore,
Christina Haralanova, and Maria Chiara Pievatolo. This is part of FSF
governance changes announced in January 2023. The next step is a review of 
current board
members: These three new members of the FSF's board of directors are the first
to be appointed since 2020, when Odile Bnassy joined. Given the
importance of the FSF to the free software movement, and the
importance of its board to ensure preservation of the software freedom
definition, the board has not taken its task lightly. Next, the FSF
will evaluate current board members with the FSF's associate members
in August, after which the voting
members will review the feedback
received and decide if each current board member should remain. More 
information on the process, and a short biography of each new
board member, is available in the full announcement.
