Board of Directors
The ASF board of directors has responsibility for overseeing the ASF's activities and acting as a central point of contact and communication for its projects. The board assigns corporate issues, assigning resources to projects, and manages corporate services, including funds and legal issues. It does not make technical decisions about individual projects; these are made by the individual Project Management Committees. The board is elected annually by members of the foundation and, after the May 2012 Annual Members Meeting, it consists of:
- Rich Bowen
- Doug Cutting (chairman)
- Bertrand Delacretaz
- Roy T. Fielding
- Ross Gardler
- Jim Jagielski
- Brett Porter
- Sam Ruby
- Greg Stein

Famous quotes containing the word board:
“Don’t tell me what delusion he entertains regarding God, or what mountebank he follows in politics, or what he springs from, or what he submits to from his wife. Simply tell me how he makes his living. It is the safest and surest of all known tests. A man who gets his board and lodging on this ball in an ignominious way is inevitably an ignominious man.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
