Thanks for your answers on this Jon. Nice to see you engaging with volunteers.

I seem to be left to answer my own question. I have to assume an
on-wiki page does not exist. The charity and the board of trustees is
100% committed to transparency and staying volunteer-centric. To
demonstrate that is still the case today, I see no reason why the
minutes of this important weekend meeting should not now be promptly
published on-wiki.

I am taken aback that there was a review of Train the Trainers. As an
unpaid volunteer Lead Trainer I would expect to be informed or invited
to contribute. Why do we know nothing about it?

Thanks for confirming this meeting existed with the members of the
charity Jon, I am sure you have no interest in keeping the details of
who went and why they were chosen an unnecessary secret. This is the
sort of leadership on transparency that our CEO needs at his core,
preferably to avoid these questions ever occuring.

Fae.
