Precisely! Non-member comments belong on the regular mailing lists. This is
simply committee business. Meeting via mailing list to accommodate time zone
differences and create a permanent record. The committee minutes should be
readable to all, but the actual meeting posts should follow Robert's Rules of
Order precisely as one does in a concurrent meeting. KISS. Non-members may be
allowed to comment, but using the process in Robert's. It spreads the meeting
out a lot, but it also makes achieving a quorum much simpler.
I don't see this as anything other than covering the costs of website, etc.
Mostly providing structure such that someone leaving doesn't crater OI. Basic
enterprise management. At present a bad car crash at FOSSDEM could cripple OI
pretty badly. The more we document the better.
Have Fun!

To my understanding, this is NOT a fee for OI development, having access
to repositories, etc., but ONLY for the costs of a steering committee !
