First, it’s not a compromise. Here’s a definition of the word compromise.
A settlement of differences in which each side makes concessions.

What does Dave conceed? Nothing. Therefore it’s not a compromise.

Second, this would be a return to the way things were two years ago. Dave quit the RSS board for a reason. People said it was not independent, since Dave controlled it. A return, would only bring out the same suggestions. The board two years ago, did next to nothing. One member (Zellers) was secretly added to the RSS board and never did anything at all while appointed. The only reason the world found out he was on the board is because I announced it [http://www.kbcafe.com/rss/?guid=20040705092359].

Further, the board ran a mostly spam infested mailing list where the board members were rarely present.

Third, the compromise would involve me lying. You may not mind if I lie, but I do. I try to avoid lying as much as possible. I don’t mind the occasional white lie, but for us to say that the current board is not the same as the one Dave created is beyond my ability to deceive people. I would feel like an asshole who abandoned all that is good.

Understand, once we say that this isn’t the board that Dave created, then he’ll simply spit on our face, quit the board and use that against us to discredit us. He needs this, because even his own blog confirms that we are the same board. He announced Rogers as a member on his board. He announced he quit. He conceded the power to clarify the spec to the board.
