You may want to read that list again. Over half of Tor's board of directors have deep experience in software security. And even their attorney has given talks at hacker conferences and is very, very well respected. Tor's board shows precisely the opposite: a deep list of well qualified people to run an organization that works on an important piece of security software.

I did read it, which is why I said " a few people with the right background". I counted less than half, but my point was that it's okay for people without technical background to sit on the board of well known crypto projects.
