OK. I see "Advisory Board members will be appointed for a term commencing on the day of appointment until the conclusion of the first in-person Board meeting in the following year, unless otherwise declined, revoked or renewed." [1] and no advisory board appointments were made in 2015. [2] So, there is no advisory board. Would someone with rights please update the relevant WMF site page? [3]

As far as I heard, the WMF employees and Board use the advisory board according to their need. Sometimes they are share their thoughts as a team, sometimes individually, according to their expertise.
I have mentioned to an adviser once that it would be better to have a group submission from the Wikimedia advisory board in the Wikimania to fill-in the community about their work and need. How do they work/collaborate and so on. It does not need to share anything confidential or something, but it helps the community a lot how this mechanism functions.
