The announcement says 

« A not-for-profit organization will be set up in the coming days and it will 
be managed by a board of community members. After the first year this board 
will be regularly elected by committed community members. »

Promoters of Mageia know they need to set up lots of things, i guess that all 
this craze for Mageia has gone beoynd all imagining, showing that expectation 
for such a projet is huge.

Patience is then needed, i am sure that soon all skills will be useful !
