The GNOME Foundation Board of Directors has a meeting once every two weeks where existing and previously assigned to-do items are reported to the Board by the member in charge of that item after the relevant preliminary activity has taken place. Once that happens and we have enough material to base a vote on we discuss the findings and start a vote which will lead to a result we do consider as final for that request, issue, dispute. To-do items and private notes on a specific argument aren't public as they are most likely suggested to change while the preliminary activity moves forward or when the Board starts discussing a specific item and further activity occurs. Additionally the Board has no "core teams" internally but specific members taking care of managing particular tasks within the Board itself. We value transparency and we make sure the meeting minutes contain every single item we discussed on a meeting (except for private items we do not disclose as per requestor request or argument, i.e Groupon) with a detailed overview. Foundation members are also encouraged to ask for more details if any of the reported items are unclear. Many of the teams you proposed do exist already, what kind of contributions would you be interested in? -- Cheers, Andrea Debian Developer, Fedora / EPEL packager, GNOME Infrastructure Team Coordinator, GNOME Foundation Board of Directors Secretary, GNOME Foundation Membership & Elections Committee Chairman Homepage: http://www.gnome.org/~av _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
