Thanks. I think one idea would be to e.g. invite a community representative to each meeting as an observer, responsible for reviewing the minutes. This would always be a different person, and by design it could be e.g. always a former board/FDC member, or chapter representative, or former arbiter from wikis that have arbiters, or a steward - anyhow, someone who is legitimized without the need to organize yet another elections. To reduce costs, this person could be connecting via Hangout, but physical presence would also be an option. We could ask this person their views, but they would mostly be an observer. dj -- __________________________ prof. dr hab.
