2008/4/20, Florence Devouard <fdevouard@wikimedia.org>:

Hello,

This is embarassing...

I have only a vague memory that this meeting would occur. I remember it
was discussed but I do not remember we were officially informed it would
occur. So, I thought it would not.

I just went to look at
http://advisory.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meeting_July_2008, and see that Pat
Hughes has been retained for the meeting. Was a budget approved on this
? Is the budget planned for one day or two days ? (15 or 16 ? or both ?)

We need to hold a board meeting and it can not happen after wikimania
largely because Jimmy will not be available. I also do not want it to
happen during Wikimania, as it will be at the expense of the time we can
share with the community and will be necessarily a tiny short time.
Wikimania is already such a crowded agenda for board members that it
would not be fair to do that. So, there is only the days before which
are left free.

What are the options ?
