[foundation-board] Process and Timeline summary for ED appointment

[Laura James]

(hello, and thanks, Daniel!)

On Rufus's draft I have no significant feedback but a couple of points
where we could make the language clearer.

suggest: [deadline 8th Dec] and also link to details of how to apply.

"some others" is a bit vague!

I'm not sure what "recommendation" means here- if you mean 'this group do
the interviews and then provide their recommendation to the board' then why
not say that?

agree on Karin's point about timing here.

I agree with karin's point that this is important and should be shared and
upfront.
