No, I was just asking what he schedule was so that logging on would be
interesting.

Gary,

Do you mean a schedule for board meetings?  I think it would be good to
provide some advance notice (on this mailing list) of board meetings in
IRC so folks can plan to be there.  But my intent in adding the IRC info
was that the irc channel be used as a general discussion venue, not
specifically just for board or other meetings.

Everyone,

Speaking of board meetings, it has been suggested that we have one, but
as far as I know no one has proposed details.  I do think we need a
meeting this week.  Personally, I am flexible on the timing.  4:30 to
9:00 eastern time are a bit iffy, but other than that I can be available
anytime (and that range is doable).  So, I'll leave it to others to
start the process of selecting a meeting time.

I am hopeful that Rich could have a candidate "terms of service" for the
web site for us to approve at the meeting.  My position is that we
should aim for the minimum complexity and intrusiveness in the TOS we
can get away with responsibly.  It sounds like Rich is in sync with that
view.

I would also like to designate a "web committee" at that meeting with a
mandate at that to manage the web site, and start making decisions on
stuff like wiki technology.  I'll prod a few folks, and put up a draft
motion on the wiki.

I believe DanielB had some items to decide on (at least the TOS).  Does
anyone else have agenda items?

Best regards,
