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.
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).
The draft Marketing/PR plan (CVS board module 'apache-marketing.txt') was discussed. Note that file is ASF Confidential since it discusses a private arrangement with Schwartz. Greg talked about Susan and how it would be nice to make our relationship with her official so she is able to take necessary actions for PR and marketing purposes. It was generally agreed to be a good idea to promote the purpose and direction of the ASF to give foundation credibility and visibility. It was also thought that this will help with fundraising efforts. While it would be good to have a VP level marketing position at some point it was proposed to make Susan a marketing director (no signatory, but a point person) possibly as soon as next month.
