Maybe, and I hope so. There are eleven seats on the board (just five of those seats are "community-and-affiliate-selected"), and as you say, two seats are currently up for grabs. But even if the community manages to put someone like Kunal, Mike or Michał onto the board, it's one or two people against the inertia and groupthink of the nine incumbents, none of whom have said anything publicly to indicate their thinking has changed. The WMF board had the option to add another community-and-affiliate seat this year and chose not to, because they did not like the idea of "on-boarding" three new board members right now. You could also interpret that as being motivated by a desire to reduce the amount of change new members might bring.
