I disagree with this---meeting with a tiny fraction of the Wikimedia community and making decisions at such meetings is detrimental to the project. Real work and decision-making should be done online, in public, where everyone can participate. If people want to socialize in person, that's fine, but we shouldn't be making decisions at meetings either behind closed doors or at which only a small fraction of Wikimedians are present.
I think you may have not understood what a board exactly is.
