People cannot get engaged is they are unaware of the board whereabouts. Without engagement you are not going to generate interesting discussions. Just an example after reading the minutes recently sent: = Minutes for Tuesday, December 10th, 2013, 16:00 UTC = [...] * We should also ask on foundation-list for ideas * '''ACTION''': ... to reach out to foundation-list for ideas from the foundation members regarding the privacy campaign funds = Minutes for Tuesday, January 21th, 2013, 15:00 UTC = [...] * Status and plan for the security and privacy campaign's money * ... asked around generally for ideas * Not much feedback I don't see in the archives (December 2013-March 2014) a mail to foundation-list asking for ideas for the privacy campaign (please, correct me if I am wrong). So, it should not be strange that there was "Not much feedback". How is that none of the directors noticed this to fix it? -- Germán Poo-Caamaño http://calcifer.org/
