Hi all,

not sure if I'm the only one. But too often I've gone mad while seeking for essential information regarding the Board. If it's dates, composition of committees, whatever. Some information is on meta, some on the foundation's wiki, and some is well kept only in somebody's head (whoever that is). And we are not really good in keeping our own history. It is so hard to find former compositions, initiatives or fundamental discussions. Could be a project of its own maybe.

The ongoing discussion started by Lodewijk reminds me of an older idea, a starting point like a portal. And here it is: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMF_Board_portal

It's quite ugly and only a rough draft yet. It needs helping hands to become nicer and as informative as you want it to be. And I ask you to help. Please let me know which information you want to find there. What is missing, what needs more explanation. Help is appreciated, please feel free to add items, edit, rearrange and reformat to make it smarter and nicer.

Resolutions, policies and charters as part of the organization's core decisions are published on the foundation's wiki, and that's fine as far as they are findable. A lot of other things can and will be done on meta. Both parts can be collected on the portal and I hope it can help to provide easier access to what is going on.

Regards, Alice.
