[Board] f2f meeting follow up

[Jody Garnett]

It is tricky because although we host foss4g, attending our AGM is of
interest to a smaller portion of the attendees.

I don't have any good ideas:

- I seem to recall having the AGM in the evening, when people could go out
or attend a BOF sessions. Would that be an okay approach?
- Alternatively we could try and have it prior to the conference we would
need to be sure our officers could afford the extra nights accommodation.
- We could also consider doing it similar to f2f meeting after workshops.

I guess we could just outline we need an hour long meeting and see what
suggestions are proposed.
