There are certainly individuals who are not that interested in the AB in part *because* it's called a 'board'. (I'm one of them, fwiw) In at least a few western countries I know 'board' is a lot like 'golf': though it gets quite a few people very excited, it sounds to a large number of others like something that will *maybe* be fun when they pass the age of 75. Overall, it all might be a rough wash: motivates some, scares others. And with Jeff suggesting 25% participation is actually high compared to voting on charters - what's the problem there? The word 'charter'? - I'm afraid bikeshedding the name mostly treats a symptom instead of finding the cause.
