[Foundation-l] strategic planning IRC office hours

[Mike.lifeguard]

Is it time to close the advisory board wiki like we just closed
quality.wikimedia.org? Considering the state you describe, I rather
think so (even qualitywiki wasn't so bad). Content could be moved to
foundationwiki or Meta (or both) depending on what it is.
