[Board] Next Board meeting Oct 6. (2011-10-06)

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Arnulf,

Glad you mentioned phone vs IRC.  Myself I wonder if this new Board is 
interested in using phone instead of IRC (although I live on IRC, I find 
IRC meetings are difficult to control, therefore last much longer). 
With phone I believe we can keep the meeting to one hour and still hit 
all of the agenda items, plus also feel a little more connected to the 
rest of the Board members.

I just want to put this option out there for the new Board.

Thanks.
