Actually, the board members who made this decision were experienced because they were full-time board members. It's important to understand that there's a bit of a difference between a part-time board member and a full-time one. A part-time board member works five to 10 days a month, while a full-time board member goes out to vote every day.
In this case, the board members may have had fewer years of experience, but they had more or as many years of decision-making experience as part-time board members. I can't give you specific names because I don't have that information, but certainly the board members who made the decisions had the necessary experience.
