  1. (11:30) Proposal to equip the board to discuss sensitive project confirmation materials within Executive Session
    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

    4. blaws 4.16 Open Meetings and Records.( Proposed changed text in italics).
      Except as necessary to protect attorney-client privilege, sensitive personnel information, discuss the candidacy of potential Gold Member and Platinum Members, and discuss the review and approval of Open Infrastructure Projects, the Board of Directors shall: (i) permit observation of its meetings by Members via remote teleconference or other electronic means, and (ii) publish the Board of Directors minutes and make available to any Member on request other information and records of the Foundation as required by Delaware Corporate Law.
