X.Org Foundation Board of Directors 2010 Election

[Leon Shiman]

Luc is right, there is a limit of 2 board members who work for a given 
company. 

And company affiliations should be clearly visible on the candidate list.

The procedure followed in a prior election, was that after tallying votes, 
only the two highest-scoring reps were approved as members of the board.
