<p class="MsoNormal">Just reading the board meeting minutes [1] in the context of annual<br>
report decoration - cc'ing this response to the board list with<br>
contract details removed.<br>
<br>
Perhaps report organisation is a job for the O&CWG? I empathise a lot<br>
with Dionne and Hamish and Celina - vast energy was spent building the<br>
O&CWG and it is not used - at worst sometimes actively sidelined or<br>
weirdly excluded/dismissed ( eg [2] - a perfect opportunity to respond<br>
with 'yes lets get WGs looking at things which will help' ). So I am<br>
completely unsurprised that the WG feels directionless. I think the<br>
way forward is to simply use the O&WG to do the things it is nominally<br>
tasked to do.<br>
<br>
Board meetings are held in the middle of the night in GMT+1 (this week<br>
was 02:00-03:00), we all knew it was going to be near impossible for<br>
me to show up in person to meetings months ago. So, overdue<br>
resignation incoming.<br>
<br>
Great to read that the 2020 hybrid conference was well attended and<br>
has given some fertile ground for future ideas!<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Adam<br>
