Great idea! I hope that this is the first of many. I'd love to  
attend, but won't be able to at that time. Will logs/minutes of the  
meeting be made available after the event?

I've just added a question about transparency to the suggestion list  
- hope that's OK. I'd love to get the Board's views on cleaning up  
the WMF website (e.g. lots of material is still on meta!), but I'm  
not sure how well that would fit in.
