I feel a bit lonely being comfortable with these free flowing
meetings. Lack of much structure does result in some chaos but I think
it also makes people feel much more comfortable saying what they
think.

I'm not sure what makes anyone think anyone has anything they want to
discuss with the board. I haven't seen any evidence of that in many
meetings or on this mailing list. So far in my experience lively
discussions are provoked by the board doing something that annoys at
least some community members. Our community is pretty self-sufficient
and if the governance bodies aren't making life hard on anyone things
tend to be pretty quiet.
