Hi Karsten,
Thank you for the update.
Topics covered in the meeting and via email are discussed below, and remain open on the Board’s rolling agenda for future conversation and actions:
1. Board membership: 1. The Board has been considering for some time adjusting the membership of the Board, in particular by adding new Directors. Discussions with potential new Directors will begin.
That's great news. Will the process be similar to how it's done in the Fedora Project [1]? So with a public list of nominees, published interview with each nominee and public voting results? Is there a way for the Community to (self-)nominate?
It's something we could consider, but this isn't how it's been discussed so far.
For better Community coverage perhaps CentOS Board related postings could also be sent to the centos-announce and centos mailinglists?
I'm sort of against sending these to -announce, but only because we have a number of people who parse that list with automated tooling, not because folks actually read it. I don't want to change expectations and tooling without a good reason. I could see sending to the centos main list though.
Thanks, Patrick
