In particular I think it would be very helpful to talk through some of the long standing topics around FOSS4G events before we get into the CfP for 2018, there are some topics where we need guidance from the board (e.g financial expectations, relationships with 3rd parties, guarantees). The meeting is open to anyone who is active on the Conference list, board members and anyone else with an interest in the plans for FOSS4G 2018 (i.e. it’s an open meeting)
