I will comment here only to say that statement does not reflect my opinion at all, and was not discussed with the other DMB members before Robie sent it. I have absolutely no idea whether that statement is simply Robie's opinion, or actual policy of the DMB. Personally I do not think new members should be expected to attend the majority of DMB meetings; I think it's 100% fine for members to participate asynchronously using the mailing list (or proxy voting, but with ML voting, I don't really see the need for proxy voting). > I try to lock the 17h30-20h to be able to have some family time and > that's not something I'm wanting to compromise on at this point. > > I might not be the only one in that situation, since we are short on > candidate maybe it would help to try to be less rigid on that > requirement?
