What's your point? That it was an official decision? That doesn't make it right...
You can read about the reasoning in that thread. One big factor was certainly the heavy operational involvement of the Board during the phase in which WMF did not have an Executive Director, which meant a lot more confidential & personal details were discussed in Board meetings. It appears that the practice has been recently revised again, with a (redacted) version of the last minutes I prepared posted on the Foundation website: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Minutes/October_6-7%2C_2007
Well, that's certainly a good step. I wonder why there wasn't an announcement... (at least, there wasn't one I saw).
