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. ASF Members may have access to a private draft of these still-unapproved minutes.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

 The Incubator proposes to make use of a new DISCLAIMER-WIP that
 addresses non-compliant releases.

 The IPMC can allow non-compliant releases to be distributed without
 IPMC VP or legal VP approval, based on a documented list of issues
 which are acceptable for such non-compliant incubating releases. Such
 releases will include an alternative "work in progress" DISCLAIMER-WIP
 to make users aware of the issues . When this occurs, podlings
 document the issues as blocking graduation and carry on incubating.
 They will not be allowed to graduate until all such release issues
 have been fixed.

 The board informally considers this a great idea.
