As far as I am aware, for the years of Dr. Stallman’s presidency, that position was a full-time occupation with a salary of round 0 (zero) dollars per month (or per year, I am not sure :-).

Where should they search for a person of that kind to fill such a vacancy, I wonder.  Or is this practice subject to change?
