Of course you have every right to discuss any decision on the mailing list, and even dispute it for that matter. However, I hope you realise that it is difficult to cater to every demand on this list. For example, it took me nearly two hours to prepare the minutes that you describe as too terse, and I am certainly not agreeable to investing more time than that. The discussions leading to the name, and other plans for the event, took more than three meetings, and something of the order of 15-20 hours from everyone who chose to participate. I do not see how we could possibly get this kind of involvement from people on a mailing list, the one possibility being setting up video-conferencing.
