This announcement was sent out on the 12th, and refers to a meeting on the 13th which would have been just enough time, I suppose, to raise a point directly with a Board member before the meeting. However, the web page referred to, https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_board_agenda_2016-11 states that the meeting was on the 11-12th, in other words, before the announcement was made. So, when exactly was this meeting? And would it not be helpful to the community to give enough notice to allow for a resonable probability of bringing forward an issue?
