    1. Alan has the action item from the March 5 board meeting to work with Legal and Executive Staff to develop a proposal for a motion to be made at the April 28, 2019 board meeting
      As the OpenStack Foundation embraces new areas of strategic focus and as the associated Open Infrastructure projects mature, the OpenStack board desires to do its part in helping the projects thrive and grow. A key step in project advancement is the project confirmation by the board. Confirmation will enable the Foundation to apply additional Foundation resources towards that project. In support of this process, the board at its last meeting, approved the OSF Project Confirmation Guidelines[1]. As the Guidelines point out, many factors go into the board’s decisions. To ensure that the board has the mechanisms needed to be as sensitive as possible to the needs and feelings for those invested in the projects, the board will further discuss a motion to amend the bylaws section 4.16 as follows: (changed text in italics).
    2. Note feedback from the community
    3. Proposed addition to the Confirmation Guidelines (within the Process section) - Action: Allison to provide text changes
      Add point: The discussion meeting will be an open meeting. The Board, the Foundation staff, or the pilot project may optionally request an executive session for part of the meeting, if some discussion topics have special sensitivity for legal or privacy reasons.
      Update point: The Board will review the project's application and vote whether to confirm it in the open meeting.
