Suchith,
I'll encourage you to suggest specific ACTIONS to the agenda which you 
would wish the board to make. Board meetings are more effective if we 
have had a chance to review ideas and material before the meeting, and 
then the focus of the meeting can be on making decisions and then moving 
onto the next item. Suchith, you are welcome to attend the meeting and 
contribute to the discussion.
