The board constantly deals with things of a nature that can't be made public at the time of the board meeting. FESCo /never/ has that, as whenever it runs into a legal issue, it gets bounced up to the board (or just fedora legal directly). We are going to make a concerted effort to provide more visibility into the non-sensitive matters that are discussed at board meetings, but we'll continue to do the meetings in a phone manner due to the high bandwidth and better feel for what is being said. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
