What do you make of this?
The board is still in beta, so this is exactly the moment to say what you think. A vacancy we have missed, a judgement you do not share, something that does not work — all of it helps.
Curious?
If you want to know how we arrive at this list, we run a short intro course and a newsletter. Neither costs anything.
