This was extracted (@ 2025-06-16 17:10) from a list of minutes
which have been approved by the Board.
Please Note
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.
Several issues were raised: The board@ list is often used to discuss topics that while are relevant to the operation of the board, are not relevant to the majority of the subscribers. The board@ list is often used to discuss topics that should not be discussed widely and sometimes devolve into free-for-all rants. The board@ list should be used to solicit feedback from PMC chairs but in its current usage, is ineffective. There is consensus that splitting the board@ list into at least two lists is advisable: one for official board business; and one for discussions. The members@ list also suffers from a similar issue. @Brett: take the discussion to the board@ list (!) and recommend a solution.
