Electronic Frontier Foundation ousts co-founder John Gilmore from its board

Very curious about the circumstances surrounding this move, especially as the EFF is one of the few organisations taking a principled stance on the state of the internet.

There is certainly a lot of doublespeak - the EFF's own news page is titled "John Gilmore Leaves the EFF Board, Becomes Board Member Emeritus", but the body of the text confirms that "the EFF Board of Directors has recently made the difficult decision to vote to remove Gilmore from the Board.".

Would be really interesting to know about the details about how opinions diverged.
