Sure. But let's have the definition of the API. Which includes a
*limited* number of representatives (most likely, DPL and Secretary) and
not "read the consititution to figure out who you have to speak to"

The SPI Board should only have to look at the Debian constitution and
public voting records under *extreme* circumstances, such as forking of
the Debian project.
