Hi Robert Thanks for reply my question again. We could have many information when we see the reply. Just like my last mail -- the list could be "Answer" or "Not Answer", "Date" or "None" I just check the foundation-list@gnome.org mail list last year( 2018 ). " There is no question to board candidates " At 2017, only 1 question to board candidates.

Hi Carlos Thanks for your reply. Just like my last mail. I think it's good to get more detail and information how hard to be a board member. Let every foundation member know the board hard and work hard is mean to me. Thanks again for your reply and thank for make GNOME forward with board for 2 years.

Hi Niels Thanks for reply my question. :) 2) Extrapolating how busy someone's life is by looking at a period of 2 days might not be really representative. - It's not for 2 days, it might be answer or not answer the question, right ? :) If everyone don't ask questions or ask question but there might be someone doesn't answer any question. How could we know that candidates -- just from the bio? -- Maybe everyone ( okay, at least me... ) want to hear more from candidates.

Re: Question to candidates - Minutes of the board meeting
Hi Christel and Benjamin Thanks reply my question. I think people ask question -- Because they want to improve or resolve some problem, maybe the status is optimization. Thanks both of you give some suggestions. I remember there are few questions for Board candidates and not sure every candidates answer all of the question. Here is my thinking, I want to know. * Is there any way to improve Minutes of the board meeting? or something happen in GNOME. * What is the logic -- the board candidates will do? " Because it is a rule in wiki so keep it? " " I have an idea xx " " Do nothing or just vote because " I think maybe now is the best status or way to minutes of board meeting. But if no one say that " Now is the optimization the best one, there is no way to improve ", how could we know? I will ask the question because I meaning to me, If not every candidates answer most the question or no one ask question, how could we know if there are something happen, what will they do with them?

Re: Question to candidates - Minutes of the board meeting
Hi Philip and all Thanks for reply the mail. Yes, I know the guidelines for meeting minutes. I know the 2 weeks and I want to say 10 days just an example not a real number. ( So my question is ask Board to think a way, I just suggestion ) During the my role of GNOME.Asia team, I wrote some minutes [1] too. For your question: "I would also like to ask you: what do you think would help encourage the kind of discussion you are looking for, other than minutes published after 7 or 10 days?" I want to encourage more discussion with GNOME Board, in the other hands, how many discussion with Minutes of Board meetings or directly to GNOME board last year? So my thinking is -- if the minutes cloud mail in more close time ( 2 weeks is a good time ), I think people might be more discuss with others or GNOME board ( Or maybe not? ) I know the correct information is also important, but I just want to know if the minutes is more close -- maybe people would discuss more or want to do more. for example: some minutes about GNOME.Asia --- when I see it with Board minutes -- it already over and I just know what discuss in the board. --- and that's the reason I want to ask the question.

Question to candidates - Minutes of the board meeting
Hi all, Thanks for running for the board. Thanks everyone who want take times to make GNOME better. Just a simple question about Minutes of the board meeting. Data and information might be different. For me - a GNOME foundation member Data - Get "Minutes of the board meeting" after 1 month or 2 weeks after. Because maybe the event is already close or over. Information - Get "Minutes of the board meeting" in 1 week or 10 days. Because something might be happening and everyone could discuss with board and reply. Here is the question Could you promise to think a way --- Everyone get "Minutes of the board meeting" in a very close time? Here is my suggestion. Maybe there will be a table to record the "Minutes of the board meeting" announcement time and does it announce in short time? | board meeting | Minutes| in 10 days ? | | 2019/4/29 | 2019/5/22| No | | 2019/4/8 | 2019/5/15| No | | 2019/3/13 | 2019/5/15| No | Maybe it could be a record in GNOME annual report？ There are ? % for Minutes of the board meeting on time to announce. I want to say --- It not just secretary task, It's the information we want to get from all GNOME Board member. Thanks again for all who take time to running the board Max ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
