It's too easy. All you have to do is note the significant overlap

There you have it. Half of the board sit on the committee who decides
who their electorate are!
On a serious note, James, I think you mis-spoke when you said that
Andrew Morton's term was up this year., My understanding is that people
are elected for two years, and he was elected last year, so my list of
people whose terms are up is:
Wim Coekaerts
Greg Kroah-Hartman
Christoph Lameter
Arjan van de Ven
According to the August minutes, Randy was elected back to the TAB then,
so there's actually only four slots up for re-election this year.
