The discussion around that seems to be the most contested. Not as to who they are, but the separation and powers therein.
What is exactly the question?

Council is elected by *.maemo.org members who are also known as passive members.

*.maemo.org members are welcome to apply for eV membership, and Board cannot refuse them as long as the form was filled in properly (three months of *.maemo.org membership, and some other restrictions may apply, read the Bylaws).

Board is elected by eV members who are also known as active members.

Board executes Council's and GA's rulings.

Board represents eV legally and is elected once each year.

Board has a chairman, a secretary and a treasurer?

Council is elected once every 6 months.

Council is responsible for meetings, elections and such?

For example: Council may rule to hold a coding competition, Board would pay whatever the expenses are?

Council may raise awareness about eV membership, Board would do the paperwork of parsing application forms received from applicants?

Best wishes. Thank you.
