which have been approved by the Board.

The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the
beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not
normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting.
WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
Meeting times vary, the exact schedule is available to ASF Members and Officers, search for "calendar" in the Foundation's private index page (svn:foundation/private-index.html).
Joan opened the discussion if we should expect PMC members to be held to a higher standard than other members of the community, with PMC Chairs even more so. That is, do people look to the Board and Directors or executive officers for cues on how to behave? If so, should we work on documenting expected behaviors from directors? Rich shared that the same discussion took place a year ago, with no consensus reached. At times, discussions on-list or disagreement in position are being interpreted as hostile. Several list participants also expressed surprise at the volume of email on the board's list. Daniel stated that those who wish to express non-popular opinions should be able to do so freely.
