Could the board address whether previously-approved hackfests will proceed or not? It would also be helpful to address the impact of this "go / no go" decision on intended hackfest participants (regardless of whether or not they had been approved for a GNOME-sponsored travel stipend). Also, in reviewing recent board meeting minutes, I do not see details that would give an indication of overall financial status. Even if they aren't disclosed publicly as part of the minutes, are things like "aging summaries" provided or discussed as part of a treasurer's report during the meetings?
